abstract	Following the war, he achieved notoriety illustrating Crime Does Not Pay, a true-crime comic book with a monthly circulation of over one million copies. Next, George turned to newspaper comic strips, drawing first Scorchy Smith and later Buck Rogers. He also did some work for Tower Comics. In the mid-sixties, Tuska went to work for Stan Lee and Marvel Comics, working on Captain America, the Hulk, and the X-Men, before taking over the reins of Iron Man. Also while at Marvel, George illustrated one of the first African-American heroes, Luke Cage, and also illustrated (with Michael Esposito) an adaptation of the Planet of the Apes movie which was published in the Planet of the Apes Magazine and Adventures on the Planet of the Apes. Tuska left Marvel in the late seventies to start The World's Greatest Superheroes newspaper strip for DC Comics. George later drew comic book stories for DC, including Green Lantern, World's Finest, and the Justice League of America. He retired from professional work in the mid-eighties, but continued to draw up until his death, illustrating commission requests for fans from all over the world. __NOEDITSECTION__ Image:Information-silk.png\|Character Template rect 0 0 20 20 Staff Template desc none George Tuska File:George Tuska.jpg Gallery Real Name George Tuska Pseudonyms Carl Larson Employers [[\|]][[Category: Staff]], [[\|]][[Category: Staff]], [[\|]][[Category: Staff]], [[\|]][[Category: Staff]], [[\|]][[Category: Staff]], [[\|]][[Category: Staff]], [[\|]][[Category: Staff]], [[\|]][[Category: Staff]], [[\|]][[Category: Staff]], [[\|]][[Category: Staff]], [[\|]][[Category: Staff]], [[\|]][[Category: Staff]], [[\|]][[Category: Staff]], [[\|]][[Category: Staff]], [[\|]][[Category: Staff]], [[\|]][[Category: Staff]], [[\|]][[Category: Staff]], [[\|]][[Category: Staff]], [[\|]][[Category: Staff]], [[\|]][[Category: Staff]], [[\|]][[Category: Staff]], [[\|]][[Category: Staff]] , [[\|]][[Category: Staff]] , [[\|]][[Category: Staff]] , [[\|]][[Category: Staff]] , [[\|]][[Category: Staff]] , [[\|]][[Category: Staff]] , [[\|]][[Category: Staff]] , [[\|]][[Category: Staff]] , [[\|]][[Category: Staff]] , [[\|]][[Category: Staff]] Job Titles Penciler; Inker; Cover Artist Gender Date of Birth April 26, 1916 Date of Death October 16, 2009 Place of Birth Hartford, Connecticut, United States of America Place of Death Manchester Township, New Jersey First publication Unknown
