ive been thinking about this since I walked around AnimeExpo, and walking around Lightbox really cemented it for me:

Frank Lloyd Wright's historic Ennis House has shown up in plenty of films but for me the Los Feliz marvel of Mayan Revival architecture will always be the home of Neville Sinclair in THE ROCKETEER (1991).

Without Noel Sickles, there's no Milt Caniff, no Alex Toth, no Frank Robbins. He's the source for a huge slice of how comics are drawn.
