Vic Sommers

Vic Sommers made their debut in the pages of Action Comics Weekly #601 in 1988, stepping into DC's anthology era when that landmark title reinvented itself as a weekly showcase for a rotating cast of heroes and stories. Created by the sharp crime-writing duo of Max Allan Collins and Terry Beatty, Vic shares that bustling anthology world with the likes of Green Lantern and Hal Jordan, rubbing shoulders with a vivid supporting cast that includes Tony Mantegna, Dr. Maria Verdugo, and Ladonna Jameal. With 23 catalog appearances concentrated in that distinctive Copper Age run, Vic Sommers is a rewarding find for collectors who love digging into the rich, often-overlooked corners of late-'80s DC storytelling.
