The Weird #1 - Bernie Wrightson art & cover + 1st appearance

Bernie Wrightson

The Weird v1 #1, 1987 - What's weird is that Bernie Wrightson rarely did superhero books in the 1970s, but embraced the genre in the 1980s. This limited series showcases a character called the Weird, interacting with many DC heroes including Superman, Martian Manhunter, Blue Beetle Black Canary and more. Wrightson's interiors are lushly illustrated in his own distinctive style. Among his best scenes is the opening splash of a rain-soaked Superman. The artist's cover design seems far less of an effort. This is 1 of 4 The Weird issues by Wrightson. /// key 1st appearance Weird, 1st issue
