The late Golden Age great was born 105 years ago… Batman fans generally have their own Mount Rushmores of artists and late Golden Age great Dick Sprang is always part of the conversation. Sprang — born July 28, 1915 — helped to define the Batman house style that lasted from the early ’40s to the early ’60s and he remains beloved today. We’ve celebrated his birthday a number of times with 13 COVERS galleries but this year, in the interest of mixing things up, we present 13 SPLASH PAGES instead. All of them are from Batman — leaving plenty of room for Detective Comics next year. Enjoy. — MORE — 13 COVERS: A DICK SPRANG Birthday Celebration — 2019 Edition.

It’s been a few years since we’ve done a 13 COVERS birthday salute to Chan featuring his voluminous Batwork, so here’s a selection from Detective Comics and Batman Family. No particular reason we’re leaving out Batman. Just ‘cuz. Dig it. — MORE — 13 COVERS: An ERNIE CHAN Birthday Celebration — 2018 EDITION. Click here. — Dig This Groovy New Bronze Age BATMAN Statue.
