For this image I scanned the pencils into Photoshop and converted them to black. Then used Photoshop for the colors and effects such as the lightning.

He has a DISGRACEFUL place in the Batman animated shows--THE reason why, cruelly, cynically, unfairly, unjustly, SUMMER GLEESON WAS THROWN OUT!


It was DIDN'T BUY the Creeper in his 1968-1969 series, just SEVEN issues, they have NO particular collectible value (can order them on ebay the S & H more). His origin had NOTHING to do with Batman and the Joker--he was SHOT, given injection to save life receiving ENHANCED powers. He hung around for 20 years in guest shots finally DEVOURED BY HYENAS.


The makers of the first, great, how (1992-1995) TRIED to have him but GAVE UP--"despite best efforts the character never seemed to work at the script stage" head writer Paul Dini explained.


BUT when the second (second-RATE) show started, DC INTRODUCED A NEW CREEPER COMICS. Both debuted SAME month (September, 1997) with no explanation 10th rate media mediocrity JERK Ryder was IN, Summer OUT.


COINCIDENCE?


JERK was RyDULL, real CHORE to listen to, while Summer a PLEASURE. He didn't rate the standout scenes SHE had kidnapped, tossing Bullock from office, reporting in gas mask. He was intended TO BE A CO-STARRING CHARACTER but again "never seemed to work" so down to next-to-LAST episode the makers gave up trying to have him AS HIM and instead ridiculously rebooted the Joker's chemical crazed origin desperately doing a disguised FREAKAZOID episode, awfully as nitwitted nuts not wildly wild as here, real mess usually ranked at better than 14th of the show's largely lackluster 24.


By the time it aired (November, 1998) was DIDN'T BUY the Creeper AGAIN, comic died in a dozen, Summer sacrificed FOR NOTHING. In over 20 years since all Creeper has had with Batman WAS TWO MINUTES IN 2011.
