Description

From the historic issue #1027 of Detective Comics.

A Halloween story featuring bandits dressed as Universal Monsters. Dracula, The Wolf Man, Frankenstein's Monster, The Mummy, the Phantom of the Opera, ... and as you can see on this page the Phantom is actually The Calendar Man. "Generations: Fractured" credits Dan Jurgens as "writer/artist" and Kevin Nowlan as "finished art." This story looks more Nowlan than Jurgens to me, especially the way Batman appears on this page in panels 3, 4, and 5. Panel 1 looks more faithful to Jurgens' style and there is a sweet pencil version of panel 1 on the back of the page as a nice piece of bonus art.

Nowlan wonderfully makes all his inked pages look like Nowlan - that's what you're getting when you sign up, and Jurgens keeps coming back for me as he clearly knows that how you make a great piece of art.

Do you choose the red pill or the blue pill?

Well it's not Al Williamson so there's no Heritage or internet confusion there

Calendar Man is the best, even when he's getting wrecked by Batman! Def get a strong Nowlan finish which looks great here, and sweet bonus Jurgens sketch on the back. At first I was wondering why this is a milestone then ahh Tec 27 to 1027, 1k Batman appearances issues later (I didn't check every issue. I'm sure DC did hehe).

The Jurgens/Nowlan Express is one hell of a ride!

Before clicking on the piece (and getting more detailed info), I thought it may have been Dan Jurgens inked by Kevin Nowlan. But that that heavy line is all Kev, while the layout is pure Jurgens. Wild contrasts that make for a unique collaboration.

Bat-Capsules and Utility Belt Pouches on the same panel?!?! Is this a Birth Page?!?!?!

Nope. No BIRTH page here (except maybe the birth of Calendar Man dressed as a Universal Monster). Those are actually birth control pills Batman is tossing from his utility belt. He didn't last 1000 issues of Detective Comics without learning a few tricks along the way.

Nowlan inks dominate!  They are slick textured and makes the Jurgens action feel so fluid!

Nowlan makes every page he inks his own, which is not a bad thing.

Love the inking on that close-up. At first I was thinking Calendar man was the Phantom of the Opera
