Chic Stone entered the comic book industry in 1939. In the 1940s, he worked for Fawcett on the original Captain Marvel and also at Timely. Stone’s Marvel debut was on Fantastic Four #27 taking over from George Roussos. Like Roussos, Dick Ayers, Paul Reinman, and Vince Colletta, Stone was widely recognised as one of the inkers associated with Jack Kirby during the silver-age and he worked in particular on Kirby’s Uncanny X-Men and Mighty Thor. He also freelanced for DC, and later spent time at Archie / Red Circle. Stone was inking for Marvel as late as The A-Team #1 (March 1984). In the early 1990s, he drew commissioned art in Silver Age Kirby-Stone style for sales through dealers.
