Holy crap that's an awesome painting! Jusko is THE man! 1986...good times. A lot of people think Alex Ross started the whole painting superheroes with realism thing, but Joe Jusko was doing that before Alex knew what a kneaded eraser was!

Oh, and by the way, in that Joe Jusko painting, her boobs are not too small.

(Notice I didn't say, "Are big enough," as these words have never come out of my mouth.)

I'm not crazy about this one. She looks way too young and too skinny. This might be the first in the series I'm not getting which is ashame because she is one of my favorites. Oh well life goes on, he

Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

I have a few PVC statues stored away. I keep the temperature normal room temp. Maybe I'll keep the room a bit cooler when I display them. One statue I have is very similar to the Black Cat pose. I'm worried now. I'm beginning to see why people prefer polystone/resin.

I thought only bootlegs were hollow. I found a company selling bootlegs once that charged for filling the statue with cement for weight.
