World's Finest Comics #255 - Steve Ditko, Don Newton art

World's Finest Comics #255

World's Finest Comics v1 #255, 1979 - Jack Ryder intervenes in a blackmail plot, pitting the Creeper against the the knife-throwing Dagger Lady. Steve Ditko's simplistic drawings are unfortunately all too common in the late bronze age. Bulletman and Bulletgirl guest star in the Shazam feature, aiding the Marvel Family in defeating the seductress Dreamdancer. Don Newton's engaging artwork resides within wildly varied layouts. Most are structured, but two pages are more organic and admittedly more interesting. This story was later reprinted in Shazam! The World's Mightiest Mortal #3. Other artists in this bronze age comic include Jose Luis Garcia Lopez. Cover by Jim Aparo. This is 3 of 28 World's Finest Comics issues by Newton and 7 of 7 World's Finest Comics issues by Ditko. /// original Newton page
