Description

"as the Seas Die"
Feb 1970.
Everything you see on this page is done by Jim Aparo (including lettering!).
No words, but a breathless depiction of a bomb attack by a stranger. A masked saboteur has been blowing up sections of factories whose wastes have been polluting the sea and killing oceanic life.
Well, the story seems to be up-to-date!

Commentaire

Jim Aparo was one of the strongest and most underrated artists of the late Silver Age and Bronze Age. Because he was so prolific, Aparo's work was sometimes taken for granted relative to the work of some of his contemporaries like Neal Adams or Bernie Wrightson, who did work on a more sporadic basis. However, Aparo's works was consistently superb. The artist did all of his own inking and lettering as well. Aparo began his career at Charlton and then made the transition to DC in the late 60s with Editor Dick Giordano. His first assignment was Aquaman starting with issue #40 (1968). He drew the title until it ended in 1971. In 1975 he returned to the character in Adventure Comics and he drew the first three issues of the 1977 Aquaman revival.
Along with Aquaman, Aparo is best known for his work on many years of Batman team-ups in Brave and the Bold along with long stints on Phantom Stranger and the famously violent Spectre stories in Adventure Comics.
In the 1980s, Aparo would go on to co-create Batman and the Outsiders and then draw some of the biggest Batman stories of the Modern Era, including "Ten Nights of the Beast" and "A Death in the Family" (featuring the death of the Jason Todd version of Robin). Aparo passed away in 2005.
