NEAL ADAMS to Receive Double-Barrel Salute in 2023

TwoMorrows covers comics’ greatest artist…

The comics industry this year mourned the death of the great Neal Adams, whom many consider comics’ greatest artist — myself very much included.

Well, two of TwoMorrows’ most celebrated magazines — Alter Ego and Back Issue — will be devoting issues in spring 2023 to the storied creator’s career and legacy.

Dig these official descriptions:

A few thoughts:

— The mags will be available at comics shops and booksellers but you can already pre-order through TwoMorrows. Click here.

— It’s only September but I can tell you already that these are the two publications I’m most looking forward to next year. Put them together and you have a great combo Silver and Bronze Age salute. In fact, I’d love to see the two collected with other Adams material published by TwoMorrows over the years. Make a heckuva paperback.

  2. I can’t wait to read those issues. As the good folks at TwoMorrows know, I buy everything they put out. The single best source of comic book history I am aware of. Can’t wait to have these show up in my mailbox.

  3. I’m getting these for sure and I’m all in for the paperback as well. TwoMorrows has been covering Neal Adams since the debut of Comic Book Artist and I was there for it back in the day. They can do no wrong by me and nobody else does it better.
