Career


Adrian Gonzales began his career as a comic book artist in the 1960s working for such Philippine comics publications as Hiwaga Komiks and Tagalog Klasiks.[1][2] He made his debut in the US comics market with the story "The Young Wolves" in Our Army at War #252 (Dec. 1972) published by DC Comics.[3] He only did sporadic work for US publishers until 1981 when he became the penciler on the All-Star Squadron series. Editor Len Wein hired Gonzales as a replacement for the previous artist Rich Buckler and notified the title's creator/writer Roy Thomas with a note stating "You're going to like Adrian Gonzales".[4] He drew the series for 13 issues[3] which included a crossover with the Justice League of America[5][6] and then became the artist on the Arak, Son of Thunder title.[4] DC Comics produced several Superman stories for the German comics market in the early 1980s[7] and Gonzales drew one of them.[8][9] A New Teen Titans drug awareness comic book sponsored by IBM and drawn by Gonzales was published in cooperation with The President's Drug Awareness Campaign in 1984.[10][11] That same year, he penciled the Super Powers limited series which tied-in with the Kenner Products toyline of the same name.[12] After a brief stint working on the Sgt. Rock series,[3] Gonzales left the comics industry in 1985 and became a storyboard artist for several animation studios including Hanna-Barbera and Ruby-Spears.[1]

This series contains material relating to the development and distribution of the Teen Titans drug awareness comic books. The comic books were designed to communicate the dangers of drug abuse to elementary school children. The Drug Abuse Policy Office coordinated the project, DC Comics developed the story line and artwork, and private companies funded the production costs. The Keebler Company sponsored the fourth grade book (released in April 1983), the National Soft Drink Association sponsored the sixth grade book (November 1983), and IBM sponsored the fifth grade book through the National Federation of Parents for Drug Free Youth (February 1984). The files consist primarily of correspondence with educators, parents, and children.
