Hourman was definitely one of the best series published at DC during its brief history but sadly was overlooked and underappreciated.

IMO, Snapper and Matthew made one of comics greatest "buddy" teams.

Tom Peyer @tompeyer.bsky.social and Rags Morales @ragsmorales.bsky.social did amazing work here.

As mentioned in the ALT TEXT, Tony himself posted this photograph earlier today in a FB group.

I don't believe Tony would do the project unless he thought it was worthy of Jack Knight.

His dislike for the direction Starman took around issue 50 was the factor in why he originally left the book.

One of the greatest Elseworlds tales ever published at DC.

A must-read, especially for JSA and Starman fans.

Amazing that the creative team reunited for "Leave it to Chance", a very different, yet equally brilliant book.

The Golden Age #4, May 1994 by James Robinson and Paul Smith w/ Richard Ory

"What If Elektra Had Lived?"

One of the greatest "What If...?" stories ever published. Written and pencilled by a creator who many believe was at his bronze age creative peak.

What If #35, Oct 1982 by Frank Miller & Terry Austin. Alternate timeline of events from Daredevil #181.
