@vox doom: I want to read that UN book. out of the stellar stuff going on here, that's one of the covers which suggests a really good story, beyond uniforms and interesting typography for exercise's sake.
@256: reminds me of old Jacob Bannon stuff. very cool.
some of these are astounding... I am, as always, in awe of you my Whitechapel bro's!
Sobriero - great design you always have reminded me of a moebius style, in this its cool to se you take a small left field curve... Paul Sizer - as always your syle blows me away and is completely unique and perfect... BUcky - Actually, though it may not be the "cleanest" design submitted, i would say that along with Rooth this is my favourite design, simply because i love the connotation of what is siggested by the image.. sublime! Lizardboi - well.... Its like Superman crossed with an angry gailic version of thor... LOVE IT
So many more that blew me away... but these deserved honourable mentions...
Thanks Mr E... BRING ON NEXT WEEKS CHALLENGE!!! SLx
I really should be doing other stuff, but the challenge was too great to pass up! It was the "daring exploits" bit that made me think of stuntman. I miss the Human Fly. I'm surprised Bendis hasn't made him a New Avenger yet, given his taste for 70's Marvel heroes.
No time to color it right now. Maybe I can get to that sometime next week. Anyone can feel free to go ahead and color it if they like.
My take, based on the actor who played the Adam Character in the production of Frankenstein by the Guthrie theater I saw as a kidlet. And a touch of my mother's stories about the thunder gods.
Wonderful submissions from frequentcontributor, wings_of_wrath, 256, eyemageone, brunorubio... I was going to highlight more of the great stuff that's still flowing in, but there are too many to mention. Amazing
@sarianlives. Thanks, I really appreciate the kind words. And I agree with you, I could have been more meticulous with the paint brushes, I have to work on that.
@Clone Artist - Superman is all well and good, but Disco, Sorceress of Zoom and Some Random Guy are the elements that make the first issue of any comic really memorable!
@Jorell - Brilliant. Slave-Superman fighting off his owners with his feet and his chains! Great style, great lighting.
