Nice

 

[kumanoki]

Classy. Almost makes me want to shell out 2.75 for a comic again.

 

[SirFodderton]

Hey that looks pretty cool. I only recognize half of the characters though. And what's up with spider-man(top right)? He looks kinda weird...

 

[Mike Works]

Is that Flat Top from Dick Tracy at the bottom right!?

That's Hammerhead! Spider-Man villain.

 

[sprsk]

pretty awful composition.

 

[Spike Spiegel]

"By John Romita Sr. and Alex Ross"

That's how he looks as a Macy's balloon.

And why is MJ in the center?

 

[ArcadeStickMonk]

So a huge chunk of the X-Men are absent, no Charles Xavier, no Silver Surfer, no Nightcrawler, not even a Magneto...

But the Rhino dude is in there!

 

[Wellington]

His MJ, Firestar, and Shocker are excellent, imo.

 

[Manabanana]

pretty awful composition.

Agreed. The eye isn't really drawn anywhere. It's just, "Hey, superheroes."

 

[Tenguman]

I see camel toe

someone make this into a wallpaper

It's Spider-Man themed, yo'.

 

[enjoy bell woods]

Why are there floating heads?

WHERE IS VENOM?

 

[hXc_thugg]

WHERE IS VENOM?

It's John Romita era stuff!

Why not just center it on a white-color background in Windows? It has an option to resize it if it's too wide resolution-wise to fit on your screen.

 

[ArcadeStickMonk]

It's John Romita era stuff!

So he's responsible for rhino-guys, bird-men, and black guys in low cut shirts, but they subbed it out when it was time for the characters not to suck?

He did create The Rhino, but most of the other characters are just characters he used during his run.

 

[BobbyRobby]

Awesome Picture. Nice to see obscure characters drawn so nicely.

 

[mightynine]

Why does JJJ get only a floating head, yet MJ's rack gets put front and center?

 

[shantyman]

+1 for the inclusion of the Prowler.

 

[Dujour]

If you don't know who John Romita is, you probably think this picture sucks. He (and his son) helped make spidey what/who he is today. Some of the best stories come from Sr.'s time. That's why MJ's int he center. It's Sr.'s pencils with Ross' paint. While he's not as good as he was in his prime because he's out of practice (even some recent work he did in Amazing a few years ago kinda sucked), this is as good as he can get today. Good god, I love this poster. Unappreciative imbeciles! Idiots.

 

[BojTrek]

I don't like most of his Marvel drawings... I love his DC works...

I asked my wife to buy Mythology for Christmas... Mythology is a huge book with his DC comic drawings... I would love a framed poster of one his drawings...

 

[SpiderJerusalem]

Damn I want that! mmmmMJ!

My recommendation:

22" x 58", $19.95, on sale in January.

I've got this one framed and hanging on my wall:

 

[Ignatz Mouse]

I like the JLA poster, but it really ought to have Firestorm in it, and not Captain Marvel.

It' seems like it's League + Friends, and Cap was never really a League-hanger-on like Adam Strange or Metamorpho. Firestorm, on the othe hand, is the only member of the Satellite-era League missing.

 

[BojTrek]

I have this poster... I am pretty sure... I bought it over a year ago, it is still unopened (in the tube form) and I want it framed...

 

[Property of Jumpship]

Thats pretty goddamn shitty in my opinion. Wolverine looks like a pole-smoker and Spider-Man is all fucked up. Who the hell is this guy? He's worse than Rob Leifield.

 

[Guzim]

Please tell me that you are kidding.

 

[FortNinety]

My fave has to be the massive Crisis on Infinite Earth painting. Simply amazing.

What the fuck....

 

[Team Rancid]

Well, he's no Bob Ross

 

[evil solrac v3.0]

his DC stuff has always been better than his marvel stuff. he makes them look like gods.
p.s: alex ross only paints characters that he likes so that's why captain marvel is on the poster instead of firestorm.

shut up you.

clearly they are superior to us. i bow down to my new masters. see how they look down on us puny humans? specially superman and batman?

 

[Ignatz Mouse]

It's just weird that it would be that complete and missing exactly one member.

That shot on the stairs makes it even more apparaent-- in the first one, you could say it was from before Firestorm joined, and Zatanna is there as a long-time friend of the league-- but the steps shot has non non-members at all, and Zatanna joined after Firestorm, I believe.

i thought zattana joined before firestorm. i know for sure both of them were gone before the vibe/steel joke of a justice league.

 

[Ignatz Mouse]

You're right, I looked. Oh well.

That's because they are in their classical costume.

 

[scorcho]

no, it's because John Romita Sr. did the pencil work, and i don't recall a single thing he's drawn of merit in the last 20 years. quick, someone get Stan Lee to write some new material!
