Description

Wonder Woman (issue 249, p 15) is from one of my favourite books of all time. I'm sure you know the type, that one that we find at the right age and the right time and spend days carrying it everywhere you go. This page always reminds me of what I love about comics. If you happen to see any other pages from this issue, I would be grateful if you let me know.

In the story, the readers are introduced to Steve Trevor's brother, whom acts friendly but actually works for a secret government organisation that wants to force the Justice League to share their alien technology with the US military. 'Evil Steve' thought that shooting a rocket at Wonder Woman and Hawkgirl would be a good start and of course it doesn't end well for him.

Because the few pages before this one were of the invisible jet in the open and sunny blue sky, the contrasting darkness skilfully created in the top two panels of this page really helped the flood of light into the bottom panel pop out.

Joe Giella's inking on this page seems like he had a great day at the office. If you look at where the glass shards are flying, Mr Giella repeatedly dragged a sharp point across his beautiful inking to create motion lines trailing the glass pieces. The shards in front of inked backgrounds have been given their definition through a combination of scratching and added whitening. I love that this beautiful page was not complete until it was expertly scratched across by Mr Giella.

Thanks for directing me here. Delbo drew a very nice Wonder Woman and I'll never understand why not more of a fan favorite. Joe's inking look great over Delbo's pencils. Nice display type piece!

P.S. Do you still have the page before this one?

I agree that there should be more love out there for the Delbo Wonder Woman era. As a duet with Giella,they are completely fulfilling. I do still have the page from the beginning of the missile/jet sequence (Both are framed next to each other in my home). There are a few pages in between where the invisible jet avoids a missile that I would love to own in order to restore the whole exciting sequence. One of the pages is owned by Frank Giella (in his CAF gallery) so there is no way I would ask for that one! The others may still out there...
