You know, I think raising the collar of the cape on that second one makes the design a little stronger. I’m going to post it on its own.

Today was Miracle Monday you guys. I know there’s only 40 minutes left in the day but I felt like I should do something! Ended up coloring this older drawing I had laying around. Happy Miracle Monday!

Different versions of these Superman designs have been floating in my head forever, so I decided to finally doodle them out. First one’s got Marvelman’s belt which I’ve always thought was the simplest solution to the trunks issue but whatever. If anybody likes them maybe I’ll do a finished thing with them, but for now this is just me getting them out there to see if they’re terrible or not.
Hmm… Overcorp’s font from Action Comics #9 looks a little familiar…
When Superman was created during the Great Depression, he was the champion of the oppressed and fought on the side of the working man. He was lawless. If you were a wife beater, he’d throw you out the window. If you were a corrupt congressman, he’d swing you from the rooftops until you confessed. I think it appealed to people who were losing their jobs to machines: Suddenly you had Superman wrecking machines and punching robots. But his popularity has declined—nobody wants to be the son of a farmer now. American writers often say they find it difficult to write Superman. They say he’s too powerful; you can’t give him problems. But Superman is a metaphor. For me, Superman has the same problems we do, but on a Paul Bunyan scale. If Superman walks the dog, he walks it around the asteroid belt because it can fly in space. When Superman’s relatives visit, they come from the 31st century and bring some hellish monster conqueror from the future. But it’s still a story about your relatives visiting.

I always thought it would be really cool if Wonder Woman were played up as a role-reversed Zelda game and she’d have to save Steve Trevor from Hades or something. Costume is basically one of Colleen Doran’s excellent redesigns but I tweaked it a little. Also the palette is ripped almost 100% from Winder Waker, which is my favorite Zelda game. Anyway yeah, hope you like it.
Hey, so I actually made a comic for once. Hope you like it!
Inspired by Neil DeGrasse Tyson and all the cool things he says.
Messing around with Starfire’s costume. Embracing the 60s mod vibe.
It’s a giveaway! A Trinity Mothers giveaway!
I’ll be exhibiting at MoCCA festival this April and selling this print and other prints of my work. Whatever’s left over I’ll probably sell online later this year but until then, you could win this 11 x 17 print here on tumblr!
All you have to do is like and reblog this post (as many times as you want) until February 12th which is when I’ll choose a random winner, who I’ll ship it to for free.
Wow, I hope I’m doing this giveaway thing right.
Superman by Frank Quitely.
I was messing around in photoshop and I made this. It’s a simplified version of the DC Bullet logo with the 2005 font. Seeing DC’s new logo got me thinking about what I would have done.
Superman by Dave Bullock
I set this as my iPhone background recently and finally got fed up with the fact that his symbol is colored like the current S instead of the Fleischer S it’s meant to be…so I fixed it!

Dear @DCcomics, this should totally be a cartoon. I would watch it all the time.
