Brave and the Bold #79 - Neal Adams art & cover

Neal Adams

Brave and the Bold v1 #79, 1968 - The ghostly hero Deadman enlists the Batman to help find his killer. Neal Adams, who drew both characters in their respective titles, begins one of his most memorable runs. The first page, with its wide horizontal panels and absence of dialogue, has a film noir quality. Subsequent pages use strongly diagonal panels to increase tension (see interior page below). Adams' best contribution, however, is his superb drawing skills. Realistic yet dynamic, the artwork sets a high standard for the rest of the series. This story was later reprinted in Super-Team Family #2 and Deadman #5. This is 3 of 17 Brave and the Bold issues by Adams. /// Adams gallery
