Sebastian Fiumara SUPERMAN #17 pg 17

If you spend any time in my gallery you're going to find a slant in my collection away from Superhero art-- even when I buy a superhero page like this one it's not because I want to see the guy in tights punch out another guy in tights, it has to be for the storytelling. I've never been much of a fan of Superman other than the great Fleischer Bros Cartoons from 1941, the George Reeves TV series and the Christopher Reeve 1978 movie. In comics I liked the Tim Sale SUPERMAN story and I really liked the limited work Alan Moore did on the character- other than that except for the Golden Age I don't have any connection to him.

But this page really struck me because of it's Manga stye-- the giant creature, the composition and the lighting, it all comes together on what I think is a really great page by a tremendous artist.
