The 90's saw an increased focus on depicted the Rogues Gallery as a whole, particularly in Arkham-centric tales and sometimes also accompanied by the Bat-Family and Allies. This produced some great covers such as this:

I'd kill to read an Arkham story drawn by Mike Mingola. Drawn, but not written. I love Hellboy so much more in theory than in practice, but those stories sure are pretty to look at. Much as I like Harvey here, I'm mostly impressed by his take on Scarecrow (right down to the fact that he's holding his squish-skull! Oh, Squishy), and would love to read a Crane tale drawn by Mingola. Again: drawn, not written.

As for the story itself, those who've read it might agree with me that it's fun, but not as fun as it should be. But at least it gave us one of the crackiest Bat-Rogues covers of all time...


See it and nine more covers behind the cut! )
