DescriptionKEEPING IT REAL. If you've read my previous posts, you know that I am a huge fan of Lee Bermejo's work. His art makes me believe that super-heroes could be real. Here's a spectacular cover he did a couple years back with Spider-Man and Daredevil racing across the rooftops of New York City. The figures of both heroes are superbly drawn, complete with costumes that look realistic. And as real as the heroes look, check out the background--The brick buildings, the water towers, the pigeons, they all contribute to this sense you are seeing the real thing. This art was used for a variant cover for Daredevil #8 (Vol 3). Special thanks to Joe Le for letting this one go!Social/Sharing |

Wow, can't believe you got this off Joe. More than that, I can't believe he didn't offer it to ME! LOL! Probably one of my all time favorite Bermejo pieces. Feels right at home in your high caliber collection. Congrats buddy! Now if you'll excuse me, I have to email my friend Joe.....

Burmejo's covers start at 11 (out of 10) and go up from there. This one is a 30. So beautiful and realistic Major congrats!!

Lee draws so beautifully - you'd think the illustration is a photograph of real people -- wonderful...

Not even a pandemic can slow down your collecting prowess. This is indeed one of Bermejo's best pieces. So realistic and always great with fabric, costumes, tights and super-hero gear. Another stellaraddition to your collection Bill. Cheers! N.

Before reading your description, I noticed: 1) the water towers; 2) the bricks; and 3) the pigeons. So, we are in agreement. (And DD and SM aren't bad, either.)

I'm a sucker for water towers in comic books, and Bermejo does a phenomenal job with them here (the heroes and the buildings ain't too shabby either).

Stellar art. You can almost reach out and grab that pigeon. With Bermejo pen/pencil art getting more difficult to find, congrats on such wonderful examples.
