I pulled Kyle Rayner's GL battery-powered fist from Green Lantern vs. Aliens #4 (© Dark Horse/DC Comics 2000) drawn by Rick Leonardi and Mike Perkins.

General Zod's Heat Vision

I stripped General Zod off the cover art from Kneel Before Zod #2 (© DC Comics 2024) drawn by Jason Shawn Alexander, and then worked my own font work, and augmented the original heat vision beams to make my own version.

No Joke. This Is A Stickup!

I pulled one panel from Batman #144 (© DC Comics 2024) drawn by Giuseppe Camuncoli and Stefano Nesi, then remixed them into my own version of The Joker making a terrible joke as he dumps sinister laughing gas into the local Starbucks while firing an AK-47 in the air to get everyone's attention.

Affinity Photo Workflow: Panel pulled, dialog balloon replaced with my own weak joke.  Frame created with vignette overlay.  Gas recolored to green to be more Joker-appropriate.  A variety of masks are applied to alter the look (such as reflection).  New deadly laughing gas was added to the canister in his hand.  Mixed some skull-and-crossbones into the nasty green gas.  Replaced the original Joker face with another grabbed from a different source so we could see his psychotic grin way better.

The Joker Laughs As He Gets A Beatdown

I pulled panel elements from a couple pages of the issue of Batman #142 (© DC Comics 2024) drawn by Giuseppe Camuncoli and Stefano Nesi, then remixed them into my own version of The Joker getting a beat down provided to him by some Gotham City thugs.

Affinity Photo Workflow: Thugs pulled out and adjusted to show movement.  Machete and crowbar elements were added for more fun.  Masked and mixed in Joker's HAHA into the background, radial-gradient added, then recolored everything green.  Painted in grass.

The Joker, Batman, and Donald Trump walk into a bar together...

I pulled one panel from Batman #144 (© DC Comics 2024) drawn by Giuseppe Camuncoli and Stefano Nesi, then remixed them into my own version of The Joker making a self-referencing joke to Batman: The Killing Joke as he walks into a bar.

Affinity Photo Workflow: Dialog balloon added with my own weak joke.  Hand-created the frame. Some minor half-tone/masking filters to adjust color saturation a smidge.

The Batman Finally Murders The Joker

I extracted a batch of panels throughout the issue of Batman #140 (© DC Comics 2023) drawn by Jorge Jiménez to provide my own truncated version of Batman beating the cr*p out of The Joker.

The Dominators Launch Another Attack on Earth!

I grabbed a panel out of Batman: The Brave and the Bold #9 (DC Comics 2024) that was drawn by Gabriel Hardman split it out, altered the dialogue, and spiced it up with custom balloon, panel wrappers & a bit of font work.

Superman Soaking up the Sunshine on Top of the Daily Planet

I pulled a panel out of  Action Comics #1061 (DC Comics 2024) that was drawn by John Timms and spiced it up a bit with my own patriotic-colored edits.

The Batman & Scooby-Doo! Mysteries issue #1 [TrUzApalOOza cardstock variant cover]

I converted the Freddie E. Williams II's (@Freddieart) / Andrew Dalhouse (@adalhouse) 2012 commissioned artwork into a limited edition proposed The Batman & Scooby-Doo! Mysteries variant cover version.  This would have looked nice printed on a heavy cardstock cover for the new 2021 series.

Batman & Scooby-Doo finally colored

It only took me 7 years to have someone color Freddie E. Williams II's (@Freddieart) Batman & Scooby-Doo artwork for me.   Andrew Dalhouse (@adalhouse) did a really nice job of completing the process.

You can see the full posting on my original twitter post, or this link to the best image I have published on the web.  The actual finished commissioned image is over 4500pixels of glorious detail work.

Iron Man unknown artwork

unknown Iron Man artwork

[Solved - from Iron Man #241]

Anyone know which Marvel comic book this artwork actually came from?   I am not sure if it is from a 1980's issue of the main Iron Man comic book, or some other title.  Nowhere on the original does if give me a date, name, or any hint.   Most original comic book artwork as date stamps, names, issue numbers but this has nothing but some coloring guides notations.

Google & TinEye image searches were not much help but I also found a few scans of the finished image in a foreign discussion forum, a comicvine thread, and a random imgur post but none of them still gave any clues to true origin or source reference.

Can anyone identify the artist, the guy taking the punch, or the exact comic book this came from?  Any clue would help me narrow the search.

You can view the full hi-res scan of this artwork to see things in greater detail.   And before you ask the back of the artwork has only one thing written on it "story p.18", nothing else.

Hal Jordan visits Earth-Q

Here is my latest scribbling artwork where I take a source image and alter it to my needs. I took the original comic book art panel by Dave Gibbons sampled from Green Lantern #178 (DC Comics, 1984) and layered in actual photos of the Earth and moon.

Black Mirror homage comic book covers

A Brazillian artist going by the name of Butcher Billy put out a series of homage comic book cover art images with each one featuring a different episode.   If you haven't seen Netflix's Black Mirror series, you really need to check it out.

I really love how the images have an aged look of older back-issue comics and maintain an accurate artistic style.    Ordering a few of these in poster size sounds like a great gift idea.

He apparently has a couple of different art websites:  Behance and Red Bubble.

Kilowog from the GLC

Great image from artist Ben Oliver showing DC COMICS' Green Lantern Corps (GLC) member Kilowog. Comic books have gone way beyond simple 4-color images in the last twenty-plus years.

You can find more examples of his art on Twitter.

Big thanks to Freddie E. Williams II, another Kansas City native professional artist, who nicely completed the commissioned artwork I described to him.
