Some of my favorite Batman covers, as requested by Calamity Jon Morris. (Four or five? You must be joking, sir. Here’s ten. Might post more later.)
Jack Teagle recreates Irv Norvick’s 1969 Batman #209 cover for Covered.
"Man, the All Star Superman #1 cover was brilliant. When everything on the shelves is showing dudes in tights punching their allies for no reason, and most Superman writers are trying to find some way for a friend to betray him so he can “lose it” and “cross the line” and flip on his heat vision eyes just to look tough, Morrison and Quitely’s cover breaks all that nonsense with an engaging swerve. Not for nothing, but it’s the same reason my most well-known drawing is of Supergirl serenely floating backwards in the sky with her eyes closed. When everything is loud, a whisper breaks through."
Me (Dean Trippe) on criticism of Frank Quitely’s brilliant cover to his and Grant Morrison’s All Star Superman #1, by series logo designer Chip Kidd and others. From the comments on this article at Super Punch. (The Supergirl drawing I mentioned is here.)
