nice green lantern andrew...it's got a great dave gibbons/bryan talbot vibe
to it.

i always wanted to see hal jordan leave earth and actually PROTECT sector
2814...not sit on his butt and make giant green shovels and stuff with his
ring.

i think it would've been much more interesting to have explored our little
corner of the universe a little more.

i'd suggest trying this as a horizontal image instead of a vertical one...kind
of like a wraparound cover.

Nice on Andrew. I agree with James on the Talbot/Gibbons similarities.

Nice vibe to it.

Give it a go James.  I can't wait to see what you do. I think I might show my pencils for my panel later today.

Anthony -

That is EXTREMELY cool and tight! VERY much a Byrne influence!
What is that for? Work? Commission? Just goofin'?

And thanks all for the kind words. Definitely trying for a Dave Gibbons/
Paul Smith vibe.
I'll add color during lunch.

LOL

I find that happening to me. I have a -great- "Teen" Superman and Wonder Woman story. Just no point in putting any effort into it as it'll end up -nowhere-!

This looks fantastic dude.

Thanks Andrew, and believe it or not, though Byrne is a big
influence (more Fantastic Four stuff than anything else), thats
how i draw, I have to make an effort not to draw that way.
The last Byrne book i saw was the British Supes he did a while
back and it was given to me.
Its weird, but i dont see the strong influence but i guess its
there.

wow...nice stuff as always.

you're really diggin' those multicharacter splash pages, and it shows.

it's got a little byrne, a little swan, and even a little kirby in there...nice stuff
and very worthy of the golden age.
