Does anyone know who did the covers on the Milligan / Aparo run of Detective?

I believe it was Norm Breyfogle… it was actaully a crossover between Detective and Batman… Milligan wrote all issues and Aparo and Breyfogle doing the interior art.

So Greg, how about Blaze of Glory/Apache Skies by John Ostrander? I usually don’t like Westerns, but read this, and loved it!

I don’t own it, Tom. I’m always on the lookout for Ostrander comics, though, so I’ll have to keep that in mind!

Also, thank you for your review of Daredevil. I bought these as they were being released, and…THIS is what made me love Daredevil. Chichester’s writing is amazing, and he succeeds where others would have failed. The story is so powerful because it’s so average.
