DescriptionThis is an example of a splash page that I remembered VERY fondly from when I first read the comic, and then lo and behold, it became available for purchase on eBay!I was SO HAPPY to add this beauty to my collection. Special thanks to the Eagle Eye of my friend P A for alerting me to this one. (It says issue 485 at the top of the board, but it's actually issue 486). Social/Sharing |

If you're a fan of Superman, I think that you probably love images of the character as he flies around with Lois in his arms. I mean, how can't you? Like you, I also fondly remember this splash page and thought it was instantly classic as soon as I first laid eyes on it while reading the issue. Congrats on getting this one, man, she's a beauty!

A lot of folks are gonna comment on how awesome Superman looks (and rightfully so), but I think the way Grummett captures the emotion and detail in Lois's face is pretty spectacular!

An absolutely thrilling Grummett, Paul, and I'm completely with Simon here! When I first saw the piece, I had to catch my breath (and not just in a "Ooh, I hope Rubén can forgive him for nabbing this one" way... 😜 ). A -perfect- splash page. But when I really started to examine the details of the piece closely (the great POV, the lovely winter farm below, the powerful central figure of Superman) it was Lois's direct eyeline to the viewer that really put the piece over the top. A great way to connect with the reader in an unobtrusive breaking of the fourth wall. Sensational piece, Paul! Congrats!

Can you see those lines
Do you know what it is this does to me?
This splash sets the bar
Just artwork from a comics star
Here I am, like a kid out of school
Holding art from a god - nineties fool
Will you look at me, quivering
From the comics world, shivering
You can see right through me
It's an eBay find
Grummett pictures the things I'm thinking of
Lois Lane in your arms
All the Hazelwood inks you are
He can fly, he belongs to the sky
Grummet's line could be strong like no other
You might overspend
I'd be someone who'd buy too
This art piece is beloved
I'm a fan, Doug has signed

I mean, just a quintessential Supes and Lois shot. And I couldn't help but thing of Christopher Reeve and Margot Kidder right when I saw it :) Nice flow of the cape, and cool that they're amongst the clouds! Congrats, Paul!

Lois is right. It might be uncomfortable, but still beats South West!

Just for once I would like to see the situation reversed; Lois carrying Superman and him clinging to her. Just thought I would put it out there.

Been thinking of what to write for a few days now and I still dont know what I can say to capture how amazing this piece is. But at least the 90s Superman fanboys can understand how it feels seeing this classic example of Grummett/Hazelwoods run...
(and surprisingly, eBay is still coming through...there's hope yet)
