Drowning Girl is cropped from DC Comics Secret Hearts no. 83, and Whaam! is pulled from issue No. 89 of DC Comics' All-American Men of War. This is a hot button issue that was made more complicated by the comic industry not giving proper writing/art credit. We touched on this topic a little during a deleted bit of the podcast I removed for pacing.  Here is a good BBC article on the topic - https://www.bbc.com/culture/article/20130717-pop-artist-or-copy-catRuss Heath made a comic short about Whaam!  - https://comicsalliance.com/russ-heaths-comic-about-being-ripped-off-by-roy-lichtenstein-will-give-you-a-new-appreciation-for-the-hero-initiative/Flickr Account sourcing Lichtenstein - https://www.flickr.com/people/deconstructing-roy-lichtenstein/I had thought that the painting was based on Jack Kirby, but it turns out it was John Romita!This topic reminds me of Bill Finger, the guy who created Batman with Bob Kane but got none of the credit.
