Lol. Oh come on now. I don't think the baby Nightcrawler is a total make or break for the print. Overall it still looks good to me. I think once it's on a wall for a while you won't focus on it at all.

I do that with PFs sometimes... I'll obsess over one specific thing that I dislike and after a few weeks I completely forget and look past it. Nightcrawler in this print will likely be the same.

HD aluminum makes the characters pop the most imo. The yellow and silver however will fit in best with other wall decor. Going to be thinking this over until it drops for pre-order. I bet you they still offer unframed too.

Shoo The Barbarian has but one goal:

To crush collectors' hearts with newly discovered revelations, see them driven from potentially beloved art prints, and to hear the lamentations of things that can no longer be unseen!

Yea, either Cyclops is too big or Nightcrawler is too small.


... Otherwise, looks good!

Hmmm... Thought only DC Comics gave out names like that. Nightcrawlerlad huh?

* Cue "Anvil of Crom".

It’s gotta be Nightcrawler is way too small. He is on Colossus’ shoulder and is barely covering him. We know Pete gets big - but not THAT big. Kurt isnt short

What I notice more than Kurt is the very strange angle/flat part of Wolverine’s claws on his left hand.

Also, is Cyclops jumping? Where is his leg? Storm and he should have been switched since can fly.

Also, is if just me or has the quality of the art being used for comic prints gone downhill since they have mostly digital based artists? Those Derrick Chew prints had whacky things. This one does. Some other did too. Lucas W does a fantastic job, so it’s not him.

I tend to be picky with my art print purchases, but even for me it does seem like there are fewer Sideshow prints that catch my interest nowadays.
