Bob Lubbers

In his teens, he played trombone in a big band five nights a week while studying during the day with George Bridgman and other instructors at the Art Students League.

Remembering his first, pre-World War II employment at Fiction House, Lubbers recalled "a young teenager who'd come in now and then to show a little sample book he'd made up called Panther Lady.

Fiction House "welcomed me back and features and covers poured out until 1950, when my mentor Ray Van Buren led me to UFS and Tarzan and NCS membership.

Sylvan Byck at King Features asked if I'd do the last two weeks in Godwin's style to end the series.

The title character, Sam, was a tall, voluptuous, naive mountain girl who had been raised in a hidden valley away from civilization by her Maw, who hates men and wishes to protect her daughter from them.

Lubbers concluded Robin Malone in an ambiguous manner that left the survival of the protagonist unresolved.

A young inker named Bob Lewis did work for DC during that period, but he was not Lubbers using a pseudonym.
