Product Information

McAvennie "1970s" in Dolan, p. 145: "Writer Denny O'Neil once stated that he and artist Neal Adams 'set out to consciously and deliberately to create a villain...so exotic and mysterious that neither we nor Batman were sure what to expect.' Who they came up with was arguably Batman's most cunning adversary: the global eco-terrorist named Ra's al Ghul." O'Neil wrote a four-part column series for Marvel's 1978 The Hulk! magazine, under the pseudonym Jeff Mundo. "Jeff Mundo's Dark Corners" ran from issue #21 through issue #24 and covered various pop culture topics. [3] Front Row Center with Howard Chaykin: Neal Adams". NeoText.

The Perfesser is depicted as a tall, pipe-smoking genius who often gets lost in his own thoughts. [78] [79] Bibliography [ edit ] Comic books [ edit ] Charlton Comics [ edit ]

During his career, Adams co-created the characters Ra's al Ghul, Man-Bat, and John Stewart for DC Comics. Adams believed the Earth is growing [119] through a process called pair production. [120] Adams held the work of Australian geologist Samuel Warren Carey in high esteem, but considered the term "Expanding Earth" a misnomer. [121] [122] While Carey did advocate an expanding Earth in the mid-20th century, his model was rejected following the development of the theory of plate tectonics. [123] [124] [125] Adams advocated his ideas in a DVD documentary he wrote and produced, clips of which are available on his YouTube channel.
