| Plastic Man
was the first Super Hero who had his own distinct personality; he was the
first to have been a former criminal, and he was the first one to know
how loony and fun his world was. And now, his first adventures are back
in this wonderful Archive edition, collecting his origin and appearances
in issues #'s 1-20 of POLICE COMICS. New to the volume are a cover by Alex
Toth, a foreword by legendary writer/artist Will Eisner (The Spirit, Comics
and Sequential Art) and an introduction by comics historian Peter L. Myer. |

| Jack Cole, Plastic
Man's creator, broke ground that is only now being broken again by today's
comic book artists. Cole excelled as a writer, inker, letterer and penciler,
very unusual then and now. Plastic Man was obviously a labor of love for
him, as evidenced by the wild plots, characters and the sublime ability
to put all that into pictures. The most important thing about Plastic Man
and his pal Woozy Winks was that they actually enjoyed their surrealistic
adventures. Plastic Man AKA Eel O' Brian, had a great time tying himself
into knots, boucing like a super ball, and using his arms as lariats. It's
like Cole actually contemplated what an imaginative mind could do with
such a gift. Cole made it fun for the reader by introducing some of the
most original villains the comics' world has to offer. Again, Cole's artwork
is only matched by his stories. Both are edgy and out of this world. |
