Today in Comics History, January 22: Happy birthday, Marshall Rogers!

Born on this here very day today but not this year: Marshall Rogers, award-winning (and one of my personal favorite) comics artists, with groundbreaking work on Detective Comics, Batman: Dark Detective, Silver Surfer, Doctor Strange, Demon With a Glass Hand, the 1989 Batman comic strip, Marvel UK comics, and more; co-creator of Detectives, Inc. and Cap'n Quick & A Foozle!
