DC Collectibles Offers New Set of Prints
DC Collectibles has debuted some new prints for sale in its online stores and they are quite fun. With prices ranging from $19.95 to $34.95 the collection runs from travel posters, to posters signifying key moments in the history of DC characters to minimal graphic takes on character’s names.
I particularly like the Wonder Woman poster which on first glance looks like a faded logo but when examined closely is made up of worlds such as “assertive” “resilent” “equality” and “strong” among others.
There’s also a travel poster to Wonder Woman’s home: (embiggen)
The prints are light on characters except for, some reason that I can’t possibly imagine, Starfire:
And Duela Dent
I also like this one which warns of the most infamous alley in comics
It’s the pearls. They get me every time.

rejected design
I don’t know what these designs of Wonder Woman by artist were for or why they were rejected, but they are wonderful.

Poison Ivy Vs. Batman by Gabriele Dell’Otto
I am a Bat/Cat shipper and don’t really care for Ivy but this is hot.
DC Super Powers by Tom Whalen / Website / tumblr
36” X 24” 6 Colour Print, edition of 250. Available HERE
A very cool poster giveaway to celebrate Sideshow’s new license with DC Direct. Included are the 33 figures in the line which I believe includes exactly one female character - Wonder Woman.

Batman and Zatanna by Stuart Sayger
Love this. Despite my hardcord Bat/Cat shippiness, I do like Zee and Bruce. I hop Batman shows up in JLA Dark.

Catwoman by Gabriele Dell’Otto
What an interesting piece. Catwoman drawn on an official Marvel layout page. I’ve never seen this before. Could this have been done for the long overdue Batman: Europa?

A few words with Evan “Doc” Shaner and an exclusive look at a new piece
It seems everywhere I’ve go online for the past few months, I’ve run into a piece of Evan “Doc” Shaner’s art that I just fall in love with. For example, the portrait of Batman and his rogues below and the pieces featuring Batgirl and Catwoman I posted earlier today.
Shaner has a clean style that evokes the retro-feel of Darwyn Cooke. While he was very busy getting ready for Emerald City Comic Con, Shaner was nice enough to do a quick interview and provide a first look at his latest drawing.
