Showcase #75 - Steve Ditko art & cover + 1st Hawk and the Dove

Steve Ditko

Showcase v1 #75 featuring Hawk and the Dove, 1968 - Two brothers join forces to fight injustice as the costumed duo Hawk and the Dove. One advocates aggression and the other non-violence in one of Steve Ditko's most original creations. The carefully sequenced cover is quite tame, especially when compared to the interiors. Ditko's artwork is extraordinary, full of dynamically arranged layouts and drawings. The explosive panel on page 5 (see interior page below) and other scenes result in a masterful first appearance. The brothers' exploits would continue in Hawk and the Dove #1. This is 2 of 2 Showcase issues by Ditko. Hawk and the Dove would next debut their own self-titled series. /// key 1st appearance, 1st cover, 1st origin Don and Hank Hall as Hawk and the Dove
