Ernie Hart - Biography - Later Life and Career

Later Life and Career

Hart remained on staff for Marvel Comics' 1950s predecessor Atlas Comics, and briefly freelanced for Marvel during the 1960s Silver Age. His '60s scripts, some of them from plots by editor-in-chief Stan Lee, included the feature "The Human Torch" in Strange Tales #110-111 (July-Aug. 1963); the feature "Ant-Man" in Tales to Astonish #44-48 (June-Oct. 1963); and the single comic Nick Fury, Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D. #8 (Jan. 1969). Hart's work also appears in the "nudie cutie" comic, The Adventures of Pussycat (1968), a one-shot that reprinted some strips of the same-name feature that appeared in Marvel publisher Martin Goodman's line of men's magazines.

Hart, occasionally signing his work "EHH", also did stories for Charlton Comics, including writing and drawing issues of the horse series Rocky Lane's Black Jack in 1959.

Sometime prior to late 1968, Hart moved to Florida, and made his residence in Clearwater there at the time of his death, though his death certificate was issued in Connecticut.
