Homage to Jerry Robinson

Description

My homage to Jerry Robinson (January 1, 1922 – December 7, 2011). As we already had decided to publish his Atoman comic in Forgotten Generation 2, we added a small gallery of homages.

So there are two characters he co-created:

-Red Ann, who appeared in Black Terror, was co-created with Mort Meskin. She's only had that one story back in the day before she lapsed into the public domain. I revived her in Esprit Vengeur.

-The Joker, the most famous Batman's antagonist, was created with Bob Kane and Bill Finger. No need to tell more about this character.

The message can be read in several ways, considering Jerry Robinson fought for authors and creators' rights during his life. So his legacy is not only characters or comics, but also legal battles he didn't always win - we must learn from them.
