Legendary Comic Book Man, Joe Simon

Joe Simon (Oct.1913-Dec.2011), is a major source of inspiration for me. The Creator of Captain America and many more, Joe is a Comic Book Legend. Having created, drawn,written and inspired some of the greatest characters and stories in the history of comics. The effect that his work has had on the World of Comic Books and its impact on American Culture is beyond measure. Partnering his talents with those of illustrator Jack "King" Kirby, the powerhouse duo created comics that changed the game. One of the Forefathers of Modern Comics, he is one of the men who truly shaped the art form and one of the creative Heroes of the Golden Age of Comics. Not only was Joe a prolific Comic book man, but he was a spirited, boisterous and passionate human being who never lost his creative spirit. A Veteran, himself, Joe created characters that inspired the Nation during times of War and peacetime, alike and encouraged people to strive for a higher moral standard. Having a friendly appreciation of his fans, many people attest to Joe being as rich a character as any that he created. 

His Surviving Relatives carry the torch of that fire he lit, allowing fans to get a closer look at the Man behind the creativity by sharing his art (some previously unpublished), which might otherwise have become lost to time and the kind of stories that most fans miss out on. The Legacy of Joe Simon is one worth celebrating and his Family are committed to preserving his memory so that his Legacy may be enjoyed by future generations. They are good people, some of which I am Honored to know and call friends. I hope, and I'm sure they do as well, that the Worlds appreciation of Joe Simon and the inspiration he provides to his fans even today is something that only grows as time goes on.

Alex is a good friend. He is an expert with CAD and CNC Machines and has helped D.B.C. with several projects that required thinking outside the box and the use of heavy machinery. He has also done a wonderful job of refining rough architectural sketches made by Davey Blaze and using them to create functional base pieces for D.B.C. figures.
