Jim Aparo's DC Classics Artist's Edition Hardcover – December 30, 2025

Experience the peak period of Jim Aparo’s artistry from his runs featuring Batman and The Spectre, with over 175 pages of original art in this gorgeous Artist’s Edition! 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 eight complete Brave and the Bold and Spectre stories, as well as a selection of classic covers and pages. 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. The 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! Read more
