I don't know about "favorite", but you mention the color, and this was dark and moody enough that it made it hard to capture with a lens. I like it though  :)

For me of course, is the memorable iconic full page panel in Batman Vol. 1 #251 (which I'm just now noticing that Neal forgot to draw Batman's utility belt)...

...which made it to cover status...

The first comic I ever owned, I think, was Avengers #93, one of the best Adams stories aver.

Not my first comic, but my first Adams.

I know this is Adams, but every time I look at it, I think it is Gray Morrow.

Yup. In the days back in the 70s before I bought a price guide and caught up on artist credits, I always thought that as well.  Has a similar, wispy quality to it

Read the digest reprint, and even at that miniaturised scale was completely blown away by Adams’ artwork throughout, and had to chase down a back issue copy. The cover’s a classic, as well.
