From his magnum opus DC: The New Frontier…
The late, great Darwyn Cooke — gone way too soon — was born 58 years ago on Nov. 16, 1962. Traditionally, we’d do a 13 COVERS tribute but this year we’re taking a different tack: 13 SPLASH PAGES from Cooke’s ultimate creation, the 6-issue epic DC: The New Frontier.
Feast your eyes on some of the finest comic-book art you will ever see — with stunningly lush colors by Dave Stewart.
Right on.
