Deadman first appeared in Strange Adventures #205 in 1967, and was created by Arnold Drake and Carmine Infantino. The character is most associated with the art and writing of Neal Adams and the writing of Jack Miller, who took over from Infantino and Drake after the first story. Deadman is a ghost, formerly a circus trapeze artist named Boston Brand who performed under the name Deadman, a stage persona including a red costume and white corpse makeup. When Brand is murdered during a trapeze performance by a mysterious assailant known only as the Hook, his spirit is given the power to possess any living being by a Hindu god named "Rama Kushna" in order to search for his murderer and obtain justice. Deadman believes Rama is the supreme being of the universe. As well as an active character, he has also been used as the host of a number of horror-tinged stories, and this looks to be in that vein.
