Steranko was really my first exposure to The Shadow from a single artist. I found the Kaluta comics after the 12 issue run and I had been reading the Pyramid/HBJove & Bantam reprints. His rendition was such an homage to Rozen that when I finally did find the original covers (tough task pre-internet) I was completely prepared for the look and feel of 1930's pulps. Love seeing these concept drawings of his and it makes me long for seeing what Rozen's prep work was like. I think Walter would have approved of this rendition of his greatest creation.
