Inspired by The Lost 100-Pagers and Super-Team Family: The Lost Issues, I've decided to create my own take on comic book covers. These are all-original art illustrated by me, Reno Maniquis. Thank you and a good afternoon. Excelsior!

Suckers

 

I think Andrew Bennett (I…Vampire) was the first non-evil vampire that I’ve encountered in any form of fiction. I never really followed his exploits, but would see a story or two when I would purchase House of Mystery when it catches my fancy.

Gustav Decobra, on the other hand, stuck with me. Because his first (and only pre-Crisis) appearance in Detective Comics is one of the earliest comic books that I remember reading.
