This week I was once again featured on Robert Goodin’s Covered Blog. This go round, I reworked Green Lantern #122 from 1979, original cover by Dick Giordano. You can see the post on Covered, or right here. First up is my cover, followed by Giordano’s original from 30 years ago. Hope you enjoy!

So as of about 7 minutes ago (no, I didn’t sit refreshing my browser over and over…who does that?), I have another piece featured on Robert Goodin’s Covered. This time around it’s a Justice League of America cover from 1966 featuring the Shaggy Man. I had a lot of fun putting this together, and I’m feeling good about the direction of this style. Here’s the piece, though I recommend you head over to Covered to see it larger, as well as to see all the other fantastic submissions.

Now that I’m in the unpacking stage of my move to Boston, you can expect some more work up here soon, at least sketchbook pages.

Able to move at near the speed of light and control the vibration of his very atoms, The Flash is a force to be reckoned with.

“My name is Wally West. I’m the fastest man alive. I’m the Flash.”

Beware the Batman, fear incarnate to those who prey on the fearful.

“I am vengeance. I am the night. I am Batman!”

When Superman was first introduced, his abilities were simple and modest, yet powerful. Thanks to millions of years of Krpytonian evolution, Superman was faster and stronger than any human. However, his powers expanded throughout the 20th century. Despite his newfound abilities, including flight, heat and X-ray vision, and freezing breath, The Man of Steel always seemed to be summed up in three simple phrases.

“Faster than a speeding bullet. More powerful than a locomotive. Able to leap tall buildings in a single bound.”

The members of the Green Lantern Corps live by a code of honor, a motto, a sacred oath.

In brightest day, in blackest night, no evil shall escape my sight. Let those who worship evil’s might, beware my power, Green Lantern’s light!

I recently got in contact with the guy behind Covered, a blog that features artists re-doing old comic covers. Entries thus far have ranged from Tin Tin to Avengers, from Uncle Scrooge to Spider-Man. I decided to try my hand at it and made two new covers: “Captain America & The Falcon #137″ (original by Sal Buscema) and “Justice League of America #45″ (original by Mike Sekowsky).

The Captain/Falcon one will be featured on Covered in about a week, and I’m waiting on word about the JLA piece. So here they are, coupled with scans of the originals. Enjoy!

Update: I’ve taken down the JLA v. Shaggy Man for now, but it’ll be back up in another post when it’s posted on Covered in May!

I was seriously considering naming my new MacBook “The Last Son of Krypton,” but ended up going, at least for the time being, with “Change.” Seemed time appropriate as well as less of a mouthful. However, in honor of the name that wasn’t, or at least isn’t for now, here’s a sketch of everyone’s favorite Man of Steel.
