Green Lantern vs. Spidey

Thursday, October 15, 2009


We did it! Joe Quinones and I have finally collaborated on piece of artwork. If all goes as planned, we should have prints to sell at the Big Apple Con. They will be $15 each, 11 x 17 inches on heavyweight paper. There's a chance we'll have them on Friday, but Saturday for sure.

For those who are curious, we split the art chores pretty evenly. Roughly speaking, I drew Green Lantern and colored everything, Joe drew Spidey, lettered and inked. And, of course, the artwork is based on the famous cover to Amazing Spider-Man # 39, by "Jazzy" John Romita.

  1. Awesome. Weird though - I thought you would have drawn Spider-Man...but still very cool.

  4. Great job at matching the styles. I wouldn't have known it was done by two artists.

  6. Is there a chance those of us in far off Minnesotan lands could order a print and have it shipped? Pretty please?

  7. Sam, I get to draw Spider-Man every day, so I jumped on the chance to draw GL! Joe, on the other hand, already draws both.

    Paolo, thanks for the vote of confidence. We definitely got a great reaction at the con.

    Alejandro, thanks! Joe and I tend to have similar taste, so I think it was a pretty natural fit.

    Janimal, we'll be selling this on the site very soon — just gotta catch up on life after the con.

    Christina, I think we that can be arranged.

  9. We shall see, Janimal. I've been avoiding it for the last 3 years. But I've been recently informed that I have to go next year. Mayhaps.
