DescriptionThe first of two sequential pages I have from this issue.The Question is one of my all-time favorite series and I loved the storytelling by Dennis O'Neil and Denys Cowan. Originally a Charlton character that DC acquired the rights to in the '80s, O'Neil decided to have The Question (seemingly) brutally murdered in the first issue in order to rediscover himself and emerge as a stronger hero with a more complex view on life. That immediately gave the title a much grittier crime noir feel and new credibility. By issues 3, The Question is still believed to be dead and Vic Sage has gone missing, but both are gearing up for a revival. This two page sequence perfectly summarizes the origin of The Question, his disguise, his relationship with his confidant and advisor "Tot" (Aristotle), and even his set of wheels. Page 11 shows the transformation from Vic Sage to The Question as he applies his mask and activates the gas from his belt buckle. Page 12 explains the mystery behind The Question's VW Bug fully equipped with a Porsche engine and Ferrari transmission hidden under the rough exterior. What more do you need to know about The Question other than what's explained on these two pages? Lol The Question #3 "Suffer the Children" April, 1987 Social/Sharing |

congrats on adding sequential pages from a series/title/run you are a big fan of! the art has always looked great to me despite having never read it myself, the fervor and reverence in which the super fans and collectors of the series have for it I can identify with purely looking at the noir style art alone.

There is definitely a fervor for Cowan Question pages these days! I kinda wish several other collectors had never read the series either! 😜

Transformation page! The Question wears that smoke effect like a pimp's fur coat.
