I just reverted an edit (diff) that added Adams to Jewish artist categories because I could not find any reliable sources indicating the he is Jewish. I then noticed in the article the statement "He is Jewish", citing an article in Vulture. Are there other reliable sources supporting the statement that he is Jewish? I did not find any with a Google search, but that doesn't mean they don't exist. Thanks! - Mark D Worthen PsyD(talk) (I am a man.

I've read several of the articles/posts on the results page of that search and none of them state that Neal Adams is Jewish. It would seem that if he is Jewish, that fact would have been mentioned in those articles/posts. - Mark D Worthen PsyD(talk) (I am a man.

He is Jewish! Read this: Riesman, Abraham (April 17, 2018)."Green Lantern No. 76 Was the Moment Superhero Comics Got Woke". Vulture. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2001:8004:2740:761C:CCA9:6C7D:5FD7:7143 (talk) 08:35, 10 June 2020 (UTC)Reply
JPost says "Adams, who was born in 1941, was not Jewish, but had a strong interest in the Holocaust because of his childhood in Germany and his mother-in-law being a Jewish refugee from Nazi-occupied Poland." --Omnipaedista (talk) 22:07, 23 May 2022 (UTC)Reply
In an Comic Book Artist interview, published by TwoMorrows, Adams relates that he had grown up Catholic while discussing some of his work for National Lampoon in the early 1970s. 24.246.125.95 (talk) 16:39, 26 August 2022 (UTC)Reply
