That wraps up this installment of The Comic-Verse. Have any comments? Anything you wanted to share? You know what to do.
I can’t help but feel like Cyborg’s caption there should be, “The Black Guy.” Because the whiteness of the others makes him come across as a token. Of course, the maleness of the others makes Wonder Woman feel a bit token-ish, too.
I was thinking that too! I also thought that all the other words had more positive connotations (Scientist, Guard, Warrior, Hero, Detective, King) while Cyborg’s “The Experiment” was more negative. Maybe “The Survivor” or “The Ace” or “The Victor” or “The Defender”…
I agree wholeheartedly that the choice of “The Experiment” was pretty weak. I really like your choice of “The Survivor” though and “The Victor” drew a smile on my face due to its double meaning.
Thanks for the comment. 🙂
The Watchmen drawing has everything I love to see in a dark comic book: a murky blind alley, some blood here and there, neon lights, a night club, a fire escape… I also love the use of shadows on Rorschach’s body.
An awesome image that clearly demonstrates that this guy needs to be snatched up for an ongoing comic series!
After seeing these pics, I just had to look at the rest of his collection. Wow this guy’s good.
I have a really good feeling that we’ll be seeing him grace the interiors of a DC or Marvel book sooner rather than later. Maybe a pit stop at Image first?
