Detective Comics #467 - Marshall Rogers / non-attributed Neal Adams art


Detective Comics #467, 1977 - In this back up story, the Calculator runs afoul of Hawkman during his crime spree. Marshall Rogers draws his second tale of the series, demonstrating a flair for pacing and layout design. His drawing style is tightly structured but surprisingly contemporary. Terry Austin is credited as inker, but Neal Adams' hand seems evident on many panels (though not mentioned in comic book guides). Other artists in this issue include John Calnan, Vince Coletta and Rich Buckler (cover). This is number 2 of 13 Detective Comics issues with Rogers art and/or covers. See today's posts or more Rogers, Adams or Detective Comics issues. See also this blog's Adams checklist, Top 10 Adams comicsRogers checklist or Top 10 Rogers comics.
