Later on I was exposed to The Spectres back story (The Spectre is another of DCs 'spooky dead heroes'), but there's only one Deadman for this guy.Īlso I had heard a lot of talk about his early appearances that were drawn by Neal Adams, as a fan of his work this also drew me in.ĭeadman first appeared in Strange Adventures #205 (Oct 67) and was the lead feature in that comic until Strange Adventures #216 (Feb 69). I was born in 1960's and read comics my whole life, but i was more of a Marvel Zombie than a DC reader, so I didn't get introduced to Deadman until i read a story that was reprinted in the Best of DC Digest #5 (cover date June 1980, originally published in Adventure Comics #466) that really struck me - Deadman was different from any comic hero that i had read before since he was, well, dead! The ARCHIVE is available at the bottom of this intro piece, so look down there to search the blogs individual posts. This blog is a chronological issue by issue review of one of my favorite comic book characters, DC comics DEADMAN!
