One of the best visual storytellers in comics, Matt Wagner turns in a beautiful page for the inciting event for his creation's second crossover with the Dark Knight! The Gotham City Museum is hosting an exhibit dedicated to the many villains who have plagued the city over the decades and the centerpiece is the skull of Hunter Rose, the original Grendel.

Original Art from Detective Comics #417 (1971) Page 30 Pencils and Inks by Don Heck

After Batgirl aids an overwhelmed Commissioner Gordon in taking down a group of cop-killing radicals (who were themselves being set up by the mob!), all that's left is for the two definitely-not-related crimefighters to head home. Heck's inking is outstanding here, especially in the close shot of Gordon's face in the the third panel. The most notable thing about this page however is that it reveals that Gordon, through some deductive reasoning worthy of the Dark Knight, has known for a while now that his daughter is Batgirl. Pencil and ink on art board. 10 1/2" x 16".

Original Art from Flash #104 (1995) Page 11 Pencils by Roger Robinson, Inks by Jasen Rodriguez

Original Art from Flash #104 (1995) Page 2 Pencils by Roger Robinson, Inks by Jasen Rodriguez

An exciting and beautifully drawn page that finds Wally and Linda in a tight spot as Linda's reporting (and Wally's chasing after her) has led them both into a mysterious underground temple filled with Werewolf-like monsters who are somehow fast enough to challenge the Flash. Dynamic figure work and appropriately moody inking make this page a real eye-catcher! Signed by Robinson in lower margin. Pencil and ink on DC Comics art board. 11 1/2" x 16 1/2".

Original Art from Freex #5 (1993) Page 21 Pencils by Ben Herrera, Inks by Larry Welch

Original Art from Green Arrow #97 (1995) Page 24 Pencils by Rodolofo Damaggio
