DC Challenge
DC · 1985–1986 · 12 issues
About the series
In 1985 and 1986, DC Comics ran a unique 12-issue experiment with DC Challenge, a series where each issue was written and drawn by a different creative team, with the story continuing from one installment to the next as a relay. The most frequent contributors included writers Bob Greenberger, Mark Evanier, and Dan Mishkin, alongside artists Rick Hoberg, Gene Colan, and Joe Staton, though the rotating roster kept the tone and art style in constant, playful flux. This anthology-style stunt highlighted the collaborative spirit of DC’s talent pool during the mid-80s, offering a fast-paced, unpredictable ride through the DC Universe that mattered as a showcase for the era’s storytelling variety.
