I've been meaning to upload some more comic books that were drawn by Neal Adams and this one was a long time in coming. The Grand Comics Database credits Dick Giordano as the sole artist, but we know better, don't we? This back-up story is the first of a two-parter featuring the Human Target, who is hired by his servant Luigi to pose as Luigi's cousin Antonio. He is a circus artist and his act has been sabotaged a couple of times. This was written by Len Wein, but Neal didn't draw the second part so I am going to omit that issue. Enjoy!
Greetings from Spain. I have had this one in a mexican edition for more than 35 years and have always thought that neal Adams did only layouts and Giordano completed the drawings beyond the way he used to do. Note that, though a good work, it is inferior to others by Neal Adams, whose talent by the time was arriving to the point that will set the wonderful "Superman vs. muhammad Ali", his masterwork.

Agreed that if it wasn't for the obvious Adams layouts, I'd swear this was pure Giordano.
ReplyDeletePlease, could you upload the classic Marvel series of The Micronauts? This series is legendary in my country !!!
