Detective Comics #472 - Marshall Rogers art & cover

Marshall Rogers

Detective Comics v1 #472 featuring Batman, 1977 - Hugo Strange pronounces himself the new Batman on the opening page. Marshall Rogers' graphically arresting style brings a fresh new perspective to the characters. The action scenes are dynamic, but even the more mundane scenes are elegantly designed. The confrontation between Bruce and girlfriend Silver St. Cloud is especially memorable (see interior page below). Rogers' cover is deceptively simple yet utterly compelling. This story was later reprinted in Shadow of the Batman #2 and Batman Strange Apparitions trade paperback. This is 5 of 13 Detective Comics issues by Rogers. /// Rogers gallery
