''Animal Man'' was a comic book ongoing series published by DC Comics starring the superhero Animal Man. The series is best known for the run by writer Grant Morrison from issue #1 to #26 with penciller Chas Truog who stayed on the series until #32. Almost all of the series' writers and artists were part of the British Invasion of comics. ''Animal Man'' was innovative in its advocacy and for its use of themes including social consciousness (with a focus on animal rights), metaphysics, deconstruction of the superhero genre and comic book form, postmodernism, eccentric plot twists, explorations of cosmic spirituality and mysticism, the determination of apparent free will by a higher power, and manipulation of reality including quantum physics, unified field theory, time travel and metafictional technique. The series is well known for its frequently psychedelic and "off the wall" content.〔 A majority of the series' cover art was done by Brian Bolland, often portraying intentionally unusual or shocking imagery with no text blurbs. Grant Morrison would return to the character Animal Man in ''52''. ==Publication history== Although the series was initially conceived as a four-issue limited series, it was upgraded into an ongoing series following strong sales. The series was released in DC's high quality New Format, and was published without the Comics Code Authority seal of approval. When DC launched its Vertigo imprint in 1993, ''Animal Man'' was moved to the imprint beginning with issue #57. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Animal Man (comic book)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
