Some of those faces were real (or at least known to him) while others were random. Strange Adventures #207 puts into sharp relief Adams’ uncanny ability to capture the way people actually are. They are giants in the industry.īut what Adams did on his cover - the utter range of looks and likenesses - is extraordinary. I am an enormous fan of legends Carmine Infantino (Batman, inked here by Mike Esposito) and Gil Kane (The Atom, inked here by Murphy Anderson). To put it into perspective take a look at two other covers DC put out in October 1967: The original cover is perhaps Adams’ best known - and certainly one of his most highly regarded - Deadman covers. In this segment, it’s Deathstroke #15 - out 2/24 - which is based on 1967’s Strange Adventures #207. Our previous installment featured Grayson #17, which was based on Batman #237.
