Jerry Grandenetti
Charles J. "Jerry" Grandenetti (April 15, 1926, Bronxville, New York – February 19, 2010, Bellport, New York) was an American comic book artist and advertising art director, best known for his work with writer-artist Will Eisner on the celebrated comics feature "The Spirit", and for his decade-and-a-half run on many DC Comics war series. He also co-created Prez with Joe Simon.
Pop artist Roy Lichtenstein's 1962 painting Whaam! (aka Jet Pilot) is based on a Grandenetti comic-book panel on the cover of DC's All-American Men of War #89 (Feb. 1962).
