JIM APARO was one of DC’s most prolific artists through the 1970s and 1980s, especially celebrated for his work on Batman (Brave and the Bold, Detective Comics) and The Spectre (Adventure Comics). This **ARTIST'S EDITION **presents more than 175 pages of classic APARO art from what is regarded as his peak period and features five complete stores featuring Batman and five complete stories featuring The Spectre from Brave and the Bold, Detective Comics, and Adventure Comics. Although appearing to be in black and white, all the art is scanned in color, enabling the reader to see the work as close to the original as possible—ink gradients, blue pencil, and all the unique nuances that make original art so special—are all clearly visible and printed at the same size as drawn. This ARTIST'S EDITION of JIM APARO’s work is an art book disguised as a comic collection. The only better way to see these pages is by looking over APARO’s shoulder at his drawing board! JIM APARO'S DC CLASSICS ARTIST'S EDITION will have two covers: cover A featuring Batman, and cover B, a direct market exclusive, featuring The Spectre. Batman and related characters 2025 DC Comics.
