Neal Adams, Mego, &... The Penguin!?

[PNGwynne]

The recent MM Newsletter inspired me to do a little ham-fisted internet research on Mr. Cobblepot.

I think Adam's work on WGSH toy illustrations is his only art featuring The Penguin!

What say ye? I'm pretty grateful that Batman66's residual influence and Mego's success kept my favorite foe in the public consciousness and on the merchandise aisles.

^I think you're right. I don't recall the Penguin ever appearing on any Power Records product, which is another place Adams drew a lot of Batman characters.

In fact, I think a few Power Records sleeves were the only place Adams drew the Riddler, and definitely the Scarecrow.

^That's the only Power Record I own, I recall really liking the sleeve art and the Scarecrow story.

His Riddler is great, too.
