Artist's Comments

Exercise, Superman, Pencil, Adobe Illustrator.

Just messin' around, learning to ink digitally. Very early attempt. I went for a more traditional, old-fashioned style for Supes. The old, barrel-chested variety with the wind-snapping cape, easily confident posture, and winning smile. This is the primary image of Superman in my mind... inspired by the art of the legendary Man of Steel artists Joe Shuster, Wayne Boring, Curt Swan, and the masterful animation of the Max Fleischer Studios shorts.

Up, up, and away!!!

Careful. We don't want to learn anything from this.

Hmm... Interesting how Superman is viewed as a Christian allegory, yet his creators were Jewish.

Of course, some regard him more along the lines of Moses, being preserved from destruction. But I think the Christ parallels are undeniable.

Oh, my avatar? There's no real significance behind it. I have heard the Moses/Jesus arguement, and I don't buy either side's theory, Superman for me is about hope, no matter where you find it.... but for this, I just seen a neat picture of Jesus.
