PERFECT PULCHRITUDE

 Nearly no one knows the name of artist Barry Blair today, but he was all over the place during the eighties black-and-white comics boom, and this cover to BODY COUNT-- a spoof of monster/slasher films-- successfully gives the POV characters a look of overdone drama, purely for comic effect.



I've already done one Catwoman entry but I can't pass up the comic that not only crossed her over with fellow Golden Age icon Lois Lane, but also brought the villainess back to the DC mainstream after an absence of many years.
