Fantastic piece of art.
Superman I and II, two of my all time favourite superhero movies.

Stunningly great job. Now it needs Terrance Stamp Zod to go next to it.
Things I love: Batman, Superman, AEW, old films, Lovecraft
Grant Morrison: “Adults...struggle desperately with fiction, demanding constantly that it conform to the rules of everyday life. Adults foolishly demand to know how Superman can possibly fly, or how Batman can possibly run a multibillion-dollar business empire during the day and fight crime at night, when the answer is obvious even to the smallest child: because it's not real.”

What a beautiful tribute to Christopher, made immortal in this stunning piece of work. He was a great actor and such a good and giving man in life and even after his tragedy it simply spurred him on to other avenues to help those suffering with various degrees of paralysis through he and his wife's foundation.... Truly an inspiring man.... A true Superman...

Of course you'd have to set that print on some sort of motorized assembly that would spin the frame on an axis running through opposite corners Originally Posted by JBatmanFan05

Edmiston's Zod is absolutely fantastic. Supes would look killer next to him, so I would be all over it if they made a print out of the original.

That portrait is magnificent and everything a great portrait should be. If they ever do prints of this, it will certainly be appearing on my wall.

Interesting. But is it an actual painting? Looking at it in a larger image detail, I see lines like you would see in an inked image rather than a painting. Was it actually painted with oils on canvas or was it "painted" on a screen and then transferred to a canvas?

Wouldn't it be great if they drew Superman like this in his comics rather than the crew cut weakling in the T-shirt???

Both the Reeve piece and the Stamp pieces are amazing works of art. (Thus why I stole the stamp piece as my avatar!)
