Description

While I've been a Titans fan since writer Marv Wolfman and artist George Perez first revived the property in the early 1980s, I was never a fan of Danny Chase, one of the youngest members of the team (introduced several years later). But despite Danny being front and center in this latest addition to my collection, I couldn't pass it up -- the chief reason being the talent involved in the crafting of the board.

With layouts by Perez, "finishes" by a then-up-and-coming artist by the name of Tom Grummett and inks by Bob McLeod, this affordably acquired board manages to show off all three artists' styles. Perez's influence is apparent in the background detail and figure forms, while Grummett's slightly lighter style really comes through in Danny's face. And then there's the softer and smooth lines that McLeod always brings to bear in his inks.

I also like that one can see how Perez adapted a typical nine-panel grid layout into something a little different. The first tier is from that classic panel layout, but the lower two tiers have been broken up in a much different pattern. I particularly like how the central panel in the lower portion of the page conveys the depth of the high-tech shaft into which the young protagonist lowers himself.

Of course, this page features so many pre-digital vintage elements that always delight. Lettering right on the board, lettering corrections pasted on, edit marks in blueline pencils, 1989 copyright stamp on the reverse... it hits so many of those process notes. The page is also signed by Grummett at the top.
