    Default JSA Homage to Jim Lee’s X-Men #1 Cover

    Couldn’t find a JSA 2020 appreciation thread to post this to. I don’t know the name(s) of the artist(s). If you do, comment with their name(s).

    I googled to find a bigger image and found the list of artists.

    Nice homage. Atom as Wolverine is nice.

    This is awesome. Atom, Starman, Doctor Fate, Green Lantern, Sandman... everyone looks good here!

    And it's always a pleasure to see Ultra, who is for my money one of DC's most underused characters.

    I just noticed a slight error in the poses:
    Dr. Mid-Nite and Hal aren't arching their backs quite as much as Psylocke.

    In all fairness, NO ONE can arch their back like Psylocke.

    I’d never seen that JLA piece before. I dig it!

    Very nice piece of art. My only gripe is that they didn't include Wonder Woman especially with Black Canary being the only female to the X-men's Storm, Rogue, Jean Grey, and Psylocke.

    It would probably be easier to see if it was in color.
