DC Superheroes Make Over!!!

Posted by Ahmad Chishty On June - 6 - 2011

new wonder woman look DC Superheroes Make Over!!!

DC Comics giving a make over to 52 of their main characters including Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, The Flash, Aqua Man, Green Lantern and many more. To read the full story and see the video CLICK HERE!!!

After more than 75 years of dawning the same costumes, capes and masks these characters will be updated to be more appealing to current audiences, this move will generate A LOT of turbulence but if it is successful it will open the doors for a new era for most of the DC Super Heroes. Although I have no issue with the current costumes I am excite to see the outcome, I personally enjoyed the update of Wonder Woman’s new outfit and feel that this move may be over due for many characters.

In the mean time lets keep our fingers crossed and hope for the best, after all, comic book Icon JIM LEE is heading the project and I believe he will do a great job just as he did with Wonder Woman’s costume.

Hope to see you all at San Diego, Comic Con International in July!

Fantasy to Reality?

grazianyx02 Fantasy to Reality?

From Ordinary to Extraordinary

Are there real life super heroes among us? Well you might be surprised to know that what we have considered as fiction for so long is taking on a very tangible and real form, perhaps its from all the new super hero films or perhaps just from “Kick Ass,” though we may never know for sure.

Turns out ordinary people are beginning to take action for the same reasons our beloved mythical heroes take action in their own stories…for a better reality.

For a more detailed look into this phenomenon check out REAL LIFE SUPER HEROES andĀ  YAHOO! NEWS. These daring folks may seem odd, but they’ve got a lot of guts to be putting themselves on the line for the benefits of others…and yes they are sporting costumes and some even weapons!

Icons: The DC Comics & Wildstorm Art of Jim Lee

iconsjimlee 234x300 Icons: The DC Comics & Wildstorm Art of Jim Lee

What to expect if you decide to buy “Icons: The DC Comics & Wildstorm Art of Jim Lee.”

Jim Lee has become the modern marvel in comic books, with his launch on the reboot of X-men with Marvel and now with being the editor in chief of DC comics, Jim Lee has co-founded other comic book publications such as Image and Wildstorm. All of this information however is nothing new to any fan of comic books.
As for myself, I am more a fan of the artwork and what it takes to really be able to be even remotely as sharp and effective as Jim Lee when it comes to art work. On that topic I would like to review this book by saying that it gets 5/5 stars and nothing less.

Although the book does not cover the art work Jim Lee did for Marvel Comics, it does how ever to my delight cover most of his work from the 90′s and very current work with DC comics. Of course this is a collection of Lee’s works and does not in any way give any instructions on how to draw. It does how ever give insight into Lee’s passion for comic book work and gives a brief biography about how he came to be one of the most successful comic book artists of our time.

Inside the book you will find rough to finished art works, and some character design/remodel sheets and notes. This book gives a lot of insight into the way Lee works and what his mindset is and his determination. If you plan on trying to get into comic book art work, whether it’s pencilling, inking or coloring, its worth it to buy this book and best of all you can get it on Amazon.com!

And if you would like to get a SNEAK PEEK into the book by Jim Lee himself, you can check out the videos for SNEAK PEEK ONE and SNEAK PEEK TWO!

Just bear in mind if you are an aspiring artist, whether for cover illustrations or main comic book work, resources are important but a fearless and fool hardy attitude is what will really help you make it. Till next time, DRAW ON!
