A 15-page New Gods story, "Climax to
Chaos" written by Gerry Conway, penciled by Don and inked by Augie Scotto. This is
the continuation of the New Gods story from New Gods #19. |
|
460 |
12/78 |
A 10-page New Gods story, "Pursuit to
Eternity" written by Gerry Conway, penciled by Don and inked by Augie Scotto. This
story wrapped up the loose-ends from the New Gods own book and presented the end to the
war between the New Gods and Darkseid of Apokolips.
Also features a 13-page Aquaman story, "The Hunt" written by Paul Kupperberg,
penciled by Don and inked by Dan Adkins. This story is really nicely drawn by Don and Dan. |
|
461 |
2/79 |
A very nice 12-page Aquaman story, "The Hand
That Feeds the Earth..." written by Paul Kupperberg, penciled by Don and inked by

491 |
9/82 |
A 9-page Shazam! story, "The
Confederation of Hell," written by E. Nelson Bridwell, Penciled by
Don, inked by Frank Chiaramonte. Adventure went to digest-size with this
issue, so it's 5" x 7" and looks pretty poor, actually. |
|
492 |
10/82 |
A 10-page Shazam! story, "...
Battle With The Gods!", written by E. Nelson Bridwell, penciled by
Don and inked by John Calnan. Again, digest-size, and I think Calnan's
inks (even at this diminutive size) took away a lot of
"Newtonian" quality.
I suspect this and the one in 491 were originally slated for World's
Finest, before it went back to standard format from the Dollar Size. |

11/78 |
A 17-page Batman story, "The Perfect
Fighting Machine" written by Denny O'Neil, penciled by Don and inked by Dave Hunt.
Don was credited as a "Guest Penciller" on this his first Batman story. Hunt was
not the greatest of inkers for Don; he tended to smooth and simplify, losing too much of
the Newton style in the process. |

Don's work. |

A 17-page Batman story, "Riddles in the
Dark" written by Cary Burkett, penciled by Don and inked by Dan Adkins. This story

|
494 |
9/80 |

Calls at Midnight!" written by Michael Fleisher, penciled by Don and inked by Bob

3/81 |
Don was treated pretty shabby by DC right here.
He just completed 15 of the last 16 issues, but for issue 500, they snub him completely.
Not right at all. |

501 |
4/81 |

Newton and Dick Giordano A 56-page Batman story,

539 |
6/84 |
