Deadman

by Neal Adams

Overview

In 1967, a blazingly talented young artist helped bring the strange adventures of Deadman to life—and redefined what comics could do.

Boston Brand was just a circus performer when an assassin cut him down in his high-flying prime. Given an eerie afterlife as the spectral superhero called Deadman, he has the power to possess the living in order to fight for justice…and find his own killer. But the conspiracy behind his death goes deeper than Deadman knows. Now, with the help of allies from this world and beyond, including the Batman, Deadman will follow the trail to its infernal source: the League of Assassins and its immortal mastermind, Ra’s al Ghul. Dive into an all-new investigation into the DC Universe’s dark side. Written and illustrated by Neal Adams (Batman), Deadman collects the entire six-issue mini-series!

About the Author

Neal Adams was born June 6, 1941 in New York City. He attended Manhattan's High School of Industrial Art and, while still a student, found work ghosting the Bat Masterson syndicated newspaper strip and drawing gag cartoons for Archie Comics. Neal received his own comic strip based on the popular TV series Ben Casey in 1962. The strip ran until 1965 at which time Neal made the move to comics for Warren Publishing and DC Comics. Neal's realistic style on Deadman and Green Lantern/Green Arrow, at odds with the more cartoony comics of the day, made him an immediate star. He became DC's premier cover artist, contributing radical and dynamic illustrations to virtually the company's entire line. Neal's work has also appeared in Marvel's X-Men, The Avengers, and Thor, on paperback book covers, and on stage, as the art director for the Broadway science fiction play, Warp. In the 1970s, Neal and partner (and frequent inker) Dick Giordano started the art agency Continuity Associates out of which came, in the 1980s, Continuity Comics. Neal is the winner of several Alley, Shazam, and Inkpot Awards, and was inducted into the Harvey Awards' Jack Kirby Hall of Fame in 1999.
