![]() ![]() I ’ve often wondered how such an amazing talent could disappear. Nemo had been preceded by ”Dreams of a Rarebit Fiend” and “Little Sammy Sneeze.” All of these erased the barricades that separate reality from fantasy, and carry the viewer into a world of visual gymnastics, the likes of which had never before been seen. Little Nemo was his Masterpiece, but it was not McCay’s first foray into the world of unbridled fantasy. He used his amazing ability to draw realistically, and beyond, to create a surreal world of dreams where anything was possible, and everything was visual. His draftsmanship was quite possibly the most articulate the World has ever seen. There are simply not enough superlatives in the English language to describe the genius of this man. T he World is just beginning to rediscover the Greatest Comic Artist of all time, Winsor McCay. ![]()
