JB,

Everytime I see that sound effect chart, it takes me back to 1960's Marvel.

I harvested them mostly from ESSENTIAL volumes, which represented a deep dive into that "middle period" when I wasn't actually reading Marvel.

May be an ignorant question; did the lettered also draw (or write) the effects onto the art? So if, say, Claremont put a “thud” in the story, Orzechowski physically put it on paper?

Most often the letterer handled display lettering, which included titles and SFX.
