CLIFF CHIANG Original Comic Book Cover Art BATMAN DETECTIVE COMICS # 815

Here's an example of some really great comic book art! This is the original cover art to Batman's DETECTIVE COMICS # 815. It was done by Cliff Chiang. It's kind of interesting to see how it went from the black & white drawing to the colors they used when printing it. The main figure ( the bad guy ) & his victims are all rendered with black line-work while the background is done with a dark blue/gray color giving it a whole other feel, like as if it's "other-worldly" or "ghost-like"...a very nice graphic effect. We know many readers of this blog collect original comic book art just as passionately as the vintage toy & comic book collectors so please share some of your favorite original art.

Remember a few years ago when one of the bat books was done in only two or three colors? Can't remember which book or how long ago, but I liked it.

Yeah, I remember that! I think they were called "Batman Black & White" or something like that. I do remember the great art style but not the exact name.

Oh come on! Don't tell me you don't know the name of the bad guy!
