Another icon of the industry left us today. Only got to meet him once at a con. Very generous with his time.

He was very underrated.

It could be argued that he inked Carmine Infantino better than anyone, even Murphy Anderson! Certainly their work together on the Silver Age issues of Flash is outstanding.

He also did a lot of ghosting for such estimable talents as Sy Barry and Frank Giacoia.

Rest in peace, Mr. Giella.

I didn't recognise the name but having now looked him up I have enjoyed loads of his work. I can easily picture memorable scenes from the Silver Age of DC. Inkers are often left behind in recognition after writers and pencillers but I can certainly see how Giella left his mark.
