Worlds Finest Silver Age Cover

As I sit here I'm recovering from illness and an operation. (recovery is tough, but prognosis good!) I'm reading a lot about doing something nice for yourself, so I decided to set out and find the perfect piece of (affordable) art.

Things are so dark in storytelling these days... though better than a few years ago I think. So I'm gravitating towards reading comics from the Silver Age where topics are more hopeful in spirit.

I started reading some old Superman and Batman issues. They were so well crafted, inspirational, and had an air of happiness to them. Well, there's not a lot of Dick Sprang, Stan Kaye, Charles Paris, Ray Burnley, or even Curt Swan art from that era out there. But I did find the cover to DC's 2017 TPB, "Worlds Finest, The Silver Age Volume 1" by the GREAT Michael Cho!


Michael captures the buoyant optimism of the era while clearly holing a reverence for it that so many of us share. And look at those smiling faces!


Just what I need.


I hope you like it too.
