THIS MONTH IN DC, DARK KNIGHT, & MIKE MIGNOLA HISTORY.

PIC INFO: Resolution at 1168x1803 -- Spotlight on textless cover art to "Detective Comics" Vol. 1 #583. February, 1988. Artwork by Mike Mignola.

I was disappointed to find out that MM didn't contribute anything other than the cover on this ish, but what a cover he gave DC, am I right? This would make an awesome bedroom poster design if blown up properly. Shit, man, I'd buy one.

PIC INFO: Spotlight on an anti-war monologue for the '80s kids -- the opening splash/introductory page to "Weird War Tales" Vol. 1 #105. November, 1981. DC Comics. Script by Mike W. Barr, artwork by Adrian "Rian" Gonzales.

"Mortals, as always, are fools! You speak of "wars to end all wars," of "wars of peace," of "just wars."

I care not about your endless circles of words! I care only that the more men rationalize war, the longer they will fight! ... and so as men spill each other's blood, peace will remain the ultimate prisoner of war!"
