Long time comin'...


Since the book has been solicited at long last, I wanted to share the final wrap around cover with folks. Just a few months left before it's release in November and things are very much taking shape. The lettered pages look fantastic thanks to the amazing Todd Klein and I really can't praise highly enough what Barbara Ciardo is doing with the coloring. Over the course of the next couple months I hope to be able to start sharing some pages here and there as well.

    This is gorgeous! The textures and the atmosphere, and I love Superman's pose. His cape almost makes it look like he has wings. Fantastic as always, I'm really excited for this project!

    Thanks much all. Andrea, I'll be posting a black and white version around the time the book comes out, along with a TON of interior pages. Hey Tzess!!! Actually, the colors are done by me on this cover, but wait until you see what Barbara is doing with everything else. Guenter, this piece is already sold... sorry.

    Hi Lee. I can't wait to see the interior pages. I heard you are going to be at NYCC this year. Are you doing any commission sketches while you are there?
