Geoff is definitely my favorite guy they have on here. He's so open about the insecurities artists have, it makes me feel more comfortable with dealing with it in my own work.
the background of the cover was done tonally in pencil, and shot on a stat camera through a mezzotint halftone screen (mezzotint is a random pattern, instead of a uniform dot). The foreground art was shot on a stat camera without the screen. Then the foreground and background stats were pasted up together and reshot for the final cover.

Awesome..thanks for the info. I have a few if the originals.
When I seen the cover for this tabloid sized Batman I was just amazed at the cover. Loved that this was my first introduction to Ras Al Ghul.
15 minutes in and already enjoying the feel of a loving friends sharing some time to throw more love into a great artist. What a beautiful feeling, thank you for your work guys!
Chest hair!
I first became aware of Neal Adams with the X-Men run and then you'd be looking for him. Like House of Secrets had him doing the covers but yeah Specter and Deadman were super eye catching. There were a number of artists (Buscema, Gil Kane, Jack Kirby, Gene Colan, John Severin (Marie too) Russ Heath, Joe Kubert there're too many) from the old days. Geoff Darrow is awesome too and then when they referenced David Morrell it really connected because I read it before the movie also so anything by him you'd look for too. Anyway thank you for this.
One of my first comics that I still have.
geof does not have to be humble the man is amazing
Love Geof Darrow. Still tracking down all the variants for Shaolin Cowboy. Neal Adams, what a draftsman - excellent breakdown gentlemen. Time to go play with dolls.
Geof Darrow is always great when he’s on. I wish he could do more of these.
More Neal Adams videos please!! I really enjoy it when you point out details that only a comics creator would notice!
The cover: i THINK he's using a textured paper with corse wood pulp grain, drawing Ras in pencil and other "dry" medium, no ink, air brushing a gradient, and drawing Batman and Robin on a seperate piece (vellum?) And pasting it up.
I had this Treasury edition and would spend hours just looking at the fine details of the artwork. I had several of these treasury size. I hope DC considers doing this as a hardcover as a tribute to Neal's legacy.

That would be amazing. I would pick that up in a heartbeat. I’ve only gotten into comics the past 5 years so I love going back into comics history. Neal Adams is someone I haven’t heard a lot about, until his passing. (Rip Neal) but his artwork is undeniably some of the best thing to happen to comics. I wish I could’ve experienced this era as a kid.
I always thought the Ras image on the cover was rendered in penciled and then blown up to get that texture.
I would love to see Geoff Darrow on here regularly for these commentaries with you guys.
Neal is prob one of the top 10 artists that got me onto art as a kid in the late 70s
One of my favorites of the treasury edition sized DCs. C-25 is another Batman book with a great Adams cover. C-25, C-51, and C-59 are must haves if you're both a Bats and Adams fan.
If it wasn’t for these two guys I wouldn’t have learned as much as I have in the last year about cartooning. I’d be stuck reading the same three mangas over and over and leaving all my 90s Wizard magazines in the nostalgia bank.
Can’t get enough of your chats with Geof, and hear you 3 guys talk about Neal’s work is just awesome. The best tribute, 3 artist, 3 friends, talking and laughing while analyzing and appreciating one of the Greats’ work. Cheers guys, keep it up!
One of my fave episodes, seeing you three analyze and ENJOY all the details of that treasury. Geof’s laugh should be a ringtone!
Gorgeous gorgeous GORGEOUS books. Always great to have uncle Geoff on with you guys. Tons of fun.
Such a classic run of issues reprinted (complete with a classic wraparound cover), especially when enlarged to treasury--or tabloid--size!
I love when uncle Geof stops by
Neal Adams has/had a KZread channel. Very nice guy to exchange comments with, which I did with him 14-15 or so years back, but absolutely dogmatic about his own expanding Earth hypothesis which he says explains what geologists mistakenly call plate tectonics. He even sunk a huge amount of his personal income into promoting it. I never followed it up so have no idea where he stands on it now.
I love how Batman fans make fun of Batman, it's like making fun of your little brother.
Love the newsprint on oversized treasury edition style. So good
Ed’s Drew Friedman Tor shirt 👌🏽
Maybe Geoff's thinking of Sinnott smoothing out Adams art.
Yes ..the Superman vs Wonder woman was published. It was perfectly drawn by Jose Luis Garcia-Lopez.
I dig that Plan 9 shirt, Ed. The prone character is still elusive to me.
What " Head Book" is that?
I know comic book time is weird... that's technically the origin of Damion, right?
Didn’t Batman: The Animated Series adapt this story?

Yes! The two-part episode "The Demon's Head" (written by Denny O'Neil and Len Wein, based on O'Neil's issues) adapts the classic Ra's Al Ghul saga reprinted in this very treasury!
