Neal Adams draws the team-up we longed for: Deadman and Spectre

Here's a team-up I wish would have occurred during the Bronze Age.

Deadman and The Spectre drawn by Neal Adams!  If any two characters should have met, it would have been these two dead, ghostly heroes.  Throw in the Phantom Stranger and you might even have a team.  Nuff Said!

Buscema, Adams, Kubert, Garcia-Lopez, Kane on a Silver-Bronze Age Jam!

I love finding comic art jams where a die-hard fan was able to get the most famous comic artists to draw characters together in one big illustration.  Last year I featured one with Wrightson, Ditko, Infantino and many more great artists.

This one features a number of equally great artists.  Here is a rundown:

• Wendy Pini - Elfquest
• Joe Kubert - Hawkman
• Rudy Nebres - Doctor Strange
• Frank Thorne - Red Sonja (modeled on Wendy Pini?)
• José Luis García-López - Deadman
• Neal Adams - Conan the Barbarian, note Roy Thomas' signature next to Adams
• Gil Kane - John Carter, Warlord of Mars Gulliver Jones, Warrior of Mars!
• Dave Cockrum - Sun Boy Human Torch (Golden Age)
• Ross Andru & Bob Layton - Sub-Mariner
• Dick Dillin & Dave Hunt - The Flash
• John Buscema & Joe Sinnott - Silver Surfer

An impressive piece!  Martin Greim has to have been the original owner.  The fact that the owner got these inkers is also remarkable.  Who knew Bob Layton inking Ross Andru would be such a great combination?  Nuff Said!

Monster Monday: Neal Adams Deadman

Here is a commission that Neal Adams did some time ago, featuring Boston Brand.

Did anyone draw agony better than Adams?  Carmine Infantino created the costume, but Adams made it work!  Nuff Said.
