World's Finest Comics #275

World's Finest Comics v1 #275, 1982 - Using a captured Billy Batson as bait, mobster Benny Portis demands to see Captain Marvel in the flesh to negotiate his prisoner's release. The dilemma, of course, is that Billy and the Big Red Cheese are the same. Opening with a splash of carefully placed multiple figures, Don Newton continues his run on the series with skillfulness and consistency. Dan Adkins, arguably his most compatible inker, returns to enhance each page and panel. This story was later reprinted in Shazam! The World's Mightiest Mortal #3. Other artists in this copper age comic include Trevor Von Eeden and Rich Buckler. This is 22 of 28 World's Finest Comics issues by Newton.
