DescriptionPeak Mike Kaluta. From a version of project that I didn’t recall at all.This is one of two endpapers from the illustrated Metropolis (Limited Edition Hardcover). I believe all of Mike’s other beautiful art created for this project appears in both the softcover and hardcover edition, but not the endpapers. So, since I only had the softcover, I had never seen them. This spectacular art came to market for the first time in years (if not for the first time ever) as a set of the two at SDCC this past summer. I didn’t want to blow my whole budget on both of them, and fortunately, neither did Hans Kosenkranius (Tri-State) so we did a smart thing — we bought the set and split them. If we both hadn’t ended up in the right place at the right time, it’s likely that neither one of us would have ended up with them. Both are equally gorgeous so it’s a win-win. Oversized art (nearly 2ft x 3ft!), and, like I said, peak Kaluta. (Hans’ is in his CAF gallery.) Social/Sharing |

OMG! What a gorgeous piece. My eyes are rotating in my head trying to take in the luscious detail.

A parade of imagination all across! Very cool with the weight and sharpness of the inks having the industrial aesthetic and tone of the story.
