In 2019 there was a fascimile edition (complete with ads and letters) of this issue put out. It's gorgeous with excellent paper, the original coloring et al. If only all reprints were this good!
Rest In Peace Neil Adams.
Joker toxin dates way back to 1940.
I wish the Batman movies would make Batman more like the Neal Adams version. He doesn't need armor - just spandex and his skills.
Batman 89's suit was physically based on Adams' work
In regards to Adams doing a Kubert line... In my Brave and Bold collection there's a Batman/Sgt Rock jam, pencilled by Adams and ink credits to none other than Joe Kubert. So, who knows, Joe might be more responsible for some lines than given credit for. Thanks for looking at this piece, great stuff.
the rictus grin comes from the Joker's first appearance. it's certainly used to great effect here though
Neal Adams IS the Batman Artist! No disrespect to all the other greats who drew him over the decades....but Neal Adams is the top of the Mountain!
One of you guys gotta draw a shark with a blow hole now 😅 I will certainly steal that expression
My first exposure to this story was in DC Blue Ribbon Digest #2, toward the end of 1979. I was 11 and DC had been celebrating the 40th anniversary of The Caped Crusader’s first appearance.
That anecdote about Neal training Larry Hama to draw better just shows how most of today’s younger Marvel & DC artists have no real training background.
Btw that letter hack is not OUR Keith Giffen. He hails from New York.
That iconic image at 20:30 ....I have a pair of underwear with that image on them.
Got a pack of 5 at Walmart for $3.
Bro, where was the Bat-Shark Repellent?
In the 60s, discovering a NA edition was like discovering treasure. Finding comics in the UK was not easy back then. But doing the trawl around the second hand book store twice a week was worth every discovery I made. Thank you............ PS. The standing Batman on the penultimate page is just so out of proportion. It always makes me smile... But, it works.
More a revival than a reinvention, though nonetheless brilliant. It'd be great to have you guys examine the first joker story to see how terrifying he was at the beginning.
I've been looking at my signed Neal Adams print quite a bit lately. I'll be watching this later fo sho. Gotta thank you guys for all of the great content on here. Big big thanks!
Check out first appearance of the Joker in 1940. . .
A real shame that you guys weren't able to get him for a shoot interview.
The Bob Hope/Jerry Lewis books by Adams almost never get talked about (as is the case for this type of comics in general) but the art in those is surprisingly great! I think Bob Oksner and Mort Drucker worked on those as well, as did the always fantastic Owen Fitzgerald.
Great video! As always.
I was just thinking when Ed says RedRoom is banned in 28 countries, but only banned in 10 comic shops.
He could add up all the comics shops from those countries and include that in his banned comic shops numbers.
I wouldn't be a lie. ^^
The very first Joker story ever has Joker mysteriously killing people, leaving them with a smile. However, it's in the Neal Adams run that it is explained that the Joker is insane and keeps getting sent to the asylum.
One of my all time favorite covers!
There's an issue of Enemy Ace with art by Adams and Kubert that you guys should check out.One of my favorites of all time.
Thanks for the review, nice to see what to aim for.
Amazing show as always boys. Unfortunately Keith Giffen is from the Bronx NYC. I found a first printing of the Best of Joker with the Frank Miller cover. Super pumped. Not pumped about the recoloring. Who would recolor Neal Adams?? Blasphemy..
Neal Adam 227 issue cover is amazing. One day will have it.
Plenty on eBay right now
That Flesh Eaters callback had me rolling with laughter!
Big fan of this comic, maybe my favorite Batman stories. A couple things always stand out in my mind. One is the great line that Packy White says after Batman beats him in the ring, "The manly art of pugilism lost a champ when you put on your mask, fella!" Also Bigger Melvin is able to trick Batman to going back to his flop on the docks with the line that he has to get his toothbrush. Apparently Batman believes in personal attachment to cheap oral hygiene devices to such an extent that he can be easily duped by a dim witted thug.
plz review more john byrne material
