Sal Buscema and Joe Sinnott practically were the faces of Marvel!  Surprised they didn't team more often.

+++++

They did on ROM and the Hulk.

Buscema & Giordano make a really good team!  (I believe they reteamed on CONAN at some point.)

+++++

And Thor.

Along the same lines as MS. MARVEL, NOVA started off drawn by John Buscema and Joe Sinnott, went on to Carmine Infantino (inked by Tom Palmer and, once, Dave Hunt--there's a one-shot!), with some issues by Sal Buscema along the way.

Here's NOVA #14 by the unique team of Sal Buscema and Dick Giordano.

A dream team for me - Gil Kane inked by George Perez on Jurassic Park.


Edited to add example.

Curt Swan inked by George Perez is a thing of beauty and
the page posted above is my favorite of the "Whatever
Happened to the Man of Tomorrow?" story.

As much as I love Kurt Schaffenberger's work and enjoy his
inks over Swan in the second half, I wish Perez had been
able to ink the whole story. I believe Schaffenberger
deserved his own send-off, like a "Last Lois Lane or Marvel
Family story" kind of thing.

"Gil Kane inked by George Perez"

Opposites meet. Interesting.

I really love the Iron Fist origin story in MARVEL PREMIERE #15, a really good start for one of Marvel's best post-60's creations.  While Roy Thomas and Gil Kane worked together many times, I don't recall Dick Giordano inking Kane elsewhere.  It's a really sharp pairing.

I could only find piecemeal pages online, but that actually helps to focus on individual groups of panels.

One of my all-time favorite comics is GHOST RIDER #35, a fill-in (adjusted inventory story?) issue written and laid out by Jim Starlin and finished by (mostly) Steve Leialoha (with some inks reportedly by Starlin and Mike Netzer).

Starlin had a habit of dropping in and doing a fill-in issue here and there (GHOST RIDER, SUPERBOY & LEGION OF SUPER-HEROES, AVENGERS ANNUAL, MARVEL TWO-IN-ON ANNUAL)...which turned out to be some of those series' very best!





Starlin is a master, but there is a certain beauty to this issue that is not present in other works by him (dynamic and cool though they may be).  I credit Leialoha with that as well as much of the mood throughout the story (though now that I know Mike Nasser/Netzer had something to do with it, I totally can see his input).
