R.I.P. VIC CARRABOTTA...

Before all censorious hell broke loose, you rendered horror comics with shameless, ghastly abandon.  

Atlas/Marvel Comics benefited most from your artistic talent, where you granted some of your most jarring creations to Adventures Into Weird Worlds; Adventures Into Terror; Journey Into MysteryStrange Tales; Marvel Tales; Uncanny Tales; Unknown Worlds; Mystic; Beware!; and Astonishing.

But it wasn't only horror that you stirred, for you gave as much superb effort to such spunky assignments as Jann of the Jungle; The Amazing Adventures of Buster CrabbeBatmanDaredevil; The Amazing Spider-manThe Fantastic Four; Black PantherTwo-Gun Kid; Kid Colt: Outlaw; Apache Kid; Black Diamond WesternWar Comics; Battle; Battle Action; and Battleground

The intricate detail of your creations is unmistakable, enduring and endearing, Mr. Carrabotta. You were a unshakable trailblazer in the field, an artist who craved the paths for so many others, while delivering endless delight to all who absorbed your wondrous works.
