Dan Spiegle was a comic book artist who did his journeyman work mostly for Dell/Gold Key. When Gold Key shut down Spiegle moved on to other publishers, including a stint on Blackhawk for DC, and even working on Hanna-Barbera comics like Scooby-Doo. Spiegle's earliest work was mostly in Westerns, and for a long time he was the go-to artist for television adaptations like Lawman and Maverick.
Spiegle not only drew horse operas, he could draw space operas with equal skill. He drew Space Family Robinson (later Lost in Space, to cash in on the popular TV series which had lifted the premise of Space Family Robinson.) The Captain Venture strip was a backup in Space Family Robinson/Lost in Space, from issues #6 to #30. Later Gold Key reprinted two issues of reprints of these strips. What I’m showing today are the reprints from issue #1 (1968).
