Neal Adams, who helped reshape characters like Batman, Green Lantern, and Green Arrow, has died. He was 80 years old. Adams fought for creators rights in comics, conducted regular Q&A sessions with fans on social media, and created or co-created numerous beloved characters, including John Stewart, Ra's al Ghul, and Man-Bat. According to Adams's family, he passed away due to complications from sepsis. Adams, with writer Dennis O'Neil, helped to reshape the public perception of Batman in the 1970s, establishing the dark, vengeful spirit of the night that defines the character to this day.

He was a legend. He was also very pleasant both times I met him at conventions.

Absolute best comic book artist eveeeeer. Would buy any comicbook even if he did just the cover which was often the case. He drew them all like they were standing in front of him posing. Thanks for revamping Batman in the 70s Neal.
Whatever character he drew that was the iconic version for me.
Wow what a loss, goodbye my art Superhero

His Tarzan was just amazing:

RIP Mr. Adams. Batman would never be the same without you. And I mean that in a GOOD way....who knows if the character would have even survived with what Adams brought to the table?
