DC Special was a comic book anthology series published by DC Comics originally from 1968 to 1971; it resumed publication from 1975 to 1977. For the most part, DC Special was a theme-based reprint title, mostly focusing on stories from DC's Golden Age; at the end of its run it published a few original stories.

Publication history

DC Special began publication with an issue focusing on the work of artist Carmine Infantino and cover dated October–December 1968.[1] Some of the themes the title covered were special issues devoted to individual artists such as Infantino and Joe Kubert, strange sports stories, origins of super-villains, and stories of historical adventurers such as Robin Hood and the Three Musketeers. Issue #4 featured many supernatural characters and writer Mark Hanerfeld and artist Bill Draut crafted the first appearance of Abel,[2] who later became (along with his brother Cain) a major character in Neil Gaiman's The Sandman. The series was cancelled with issue #15 (November–December 1971) but was revived four years later and continued the numbering of the original series.[1] The final three issues featured all-new stories. Issue #27 was a book-length Captain Comet and Tommy Tomorrow story by Bob Rozakis and Rich Buckler. Artist Don Newton began his career at DC Comics with an Aquaman story in DC Special #28 (July 1977).[3] Paul Levitz and Joe Staton finished the series with a Justice Society of America story which revealed the team's origin.[4]

With DC Special's cancellation following issue #29 (Aug.–Sept. 1977),[1] DC immediately begin publishing the umbrella one-shot title DC Special Series, which lasted until Fall 1981.
