Detective Comics #439 - Walt Simonson art, Neal Adams cover, Joe Kubert reprint

Neal Adams

Detective Comics v1 #439, 1974 - Neal Adams begins this 100-page issue with a splendidly fearful cover. Accompanying the main Batman feature is part three of the Manhunter saga. Cornered by interpol agent Christine St. Clair, Paul Kirk recounts his origin and more recent resurrection. With the exception of one oversized panel (see interior page below), most of Walt Simonson's pages are divided into ever smaller segments. His drawings are impressively laid out and meticulously paced. This story was later reprinted in Manhunter #1 and Manhunter Special Edition #1. Reprints fill much of the book, including a Joe Kubert tale from Flash Comics #92. Other artists in this comic include Carmine Infantino, Sal Amendola and Dick Giordano. This is 37 of 38 Detective Comics issues by Adams and 3 of 12 Detective Comics issues by Simonson. /// Simonson gallery
