More NYCC
In addition to some sweet Dr. Inferno sketches, we got a few other treats at Comic Con. For my geek readers, forgive the explanation, but for everyone else – DC Comics is going through this whole 52 new titles thing. They have rebooted all of their titles. So books like Action Comics and Superman and various Batman titles are all starting over at number 1. Considering many of these titles were in the 700s and 800s (do the math – 12 per year) it is a major renumbering… if nothing else.
Anyway, I got a sketch of Wonder Woman from Cliff Chiang, the artist who is working on the rebooted Wonder Woman book in the DC 52. I also got an incredible Super Girl from Dustin Nguyen, who is not, to my knowledge, working on Supergirl. But if Supergirl was a cute little adolescent girl… I mean, really, this sketch is incredible. And lest you think think DN is weird or something, he asked how old our little girl is, so he was drawing something with a very specific target age in mind.
We’re talking way better than something you put on t-shirts or cute baby rompers. This is legit wall art, no question. Not that you, or your very stylish baby, couldn’t wear this level of art. The penciling ois just so delicate and lovely. We’d need some inking and color I think. I mean, at least to make something a baby could wear to dinner.
