Synopsis for "The Scavengers!"
The Scavengers, a group of criminals, claim responsibility for the death of Boston Brand and attempt to steal the Follower android that the Forever People give Deadman to inhabit.
Notes
- This issue is reprinted in the Jack Kirby's Forever People trade paperback.
- With this issue, the cover price is lowered to 20ยข per copy, and the format changes to a standard 32 pages. Back-up stories are no longer featured in this title.
- Due to contradictions in continuity, the events from this issue are considered non-canon by the standards of Earth-One continuity. In both Earth-One and Post-Crisis continuity, Boston Brand was murdered by a villain named the Hook in Strange Adventures #215 (as confirmed by Rama Kushna). This series posits that Deadman was murdered by the Scavengers. The alterations to Deadman's origin are not referenced in any other comic title other than this one.
- Deadman appears next in World's Finest Comics #223.
Trivia
- The tagline for this issue is "A New Life for Deadman -- Hijacked by the Scavengers!"
