If you've read any number of DC Elseworlds stories, you know one of the tropes they recycle endlessly is misplacing Superman's rocket when it comes to Earth. In fact, I'd say 90% of all Superman Elseworlds stories are just that. Well, years ago I wrote a fan-fic parody of those kinds of stories, and recently revised it with the idea of doing a series out of it.
And of course, I took advantage of a recent commission opportunity from DA artist Ashlee Iglesias to get a piece of digital art based on this silly story of mine:
Yes, you're seeing this right. This Elseworlds spoof has Superman being raised by Danny Zuko and Sandy Olsson (talk about an upgrade from Martha Kent!), and Wonder Woman is his Pink Lady love interest. It was one of those ideas that was so out there that I had to go with it. It also helps that Miss Iglesias is a huge fan of the Superman/Wonder Woman romance in general, so this went very smoothly and the communication on the commission's progress was terrific. I'm very happy with the way this turned out, and I'll certainly be doing business with Miss Iglesias again.
By the by, here's Miss Iglesias' DA page, and I believe she's still taking commissions:

And for those of you wondering what in God's name I wrote in the first place, here's the fan-fic, all 23 parts of it:

You know the "World's Worst Fan Fiction" comedy style used by the Transformers fandom? That kind of ZAZ-style craziness in movies like
Naked Gun and
Airplane? Yeah, I applied that to Superman. So expect the surreal, the obscure, the bizarre, and the sometimes really gross. But if nothing else, at least the art is nice!
Superman and Wonder Woman do GREASE!
