The Big Drop
or: Aw, Snap! I'm Dead
Don't you just hate when you wake up dead?
It's back to the Long-box of Mystery which reveals Deadman #2, reprinting stories from Deadman's first appearances in Strange Adventures. Story-wise it's the Fugitive meets DOA. Someone's murdered our high flying hero, aerialist Boston Brand, and his ghost wants to know who.
The main attraction is artist Neal Adams getting his first crack at a series of his own. Neal starts a cosmic shift in American comic art. His realism, camera work and body language surrounds the reader in the action in a way we'd never seen before.
Ladies and Gentlemen, direct your attention high above the center ring. The death defying Deadman.
Happy Trails
