Nick Fury, Agent of Shield v1 #12, 1968Barry Smith attempts a bold visual montage for his second Nick Fury cover. Crowded with too many visual elements, color helps separate the title character from rest. Even then, the layout lacks a clear hierarchy. Smith's interiors demonstrate his lack of experience, particularly the foreshortening of his figure drawings. His youthfulness, however, also results in some artistic risk-taking. The effects of a high-tech blast (see interior page shown below) and a view through the rotating blades of a helicopter (page 17) are refreshingly innovative for their time.
