I think that once a character is done, it's done, regardless of media. Which means also no other Wonder Woman. Costume changes are allowed though, so there could be hope - but who knows WHICH Superman you'd get to see.

I think for the last 10 the only rule should be to do pieces that raise the most money. The purpose is to help LCS across the nation. This still has a chance to hit 1 million if Jim cranks out a last 10 list of blue chip commissions

I am all for this. Which is the ONLY reason I think nobody has asked for Hush Batman or Catwoman. Maybe Jim is quietly telling people to hold off on that request because he was always going to do them.

If Hush Harley, Hush Batman, Hush Catwoman and a full body Wonder Woman aren't done....lord help all the money left on the table.

The two longshot characters I would love to see are Starfire and Voodoo (love that tattoo).

I have suspected this all along as well (at least after not seeing some of this after the first 10 or so). Kind of telling them not to waste a pick

Some of the choices that have been made are a little frustrating. There are so many characters that haven't been done that most people want to see, but about 20% of the pieces done so far either have Batman in them or are some version of Batman. I wish he had let people suggest three characters and then picked one of them himself. His art is going to sell for a decent amount anyway, but then maybe we would have had more characters done. Now I hope the last 10 are big name A-list characters that will bring in big bucks for the stores.

not feeling that superman at all

I like Lee's paintings, but I think I figured out why they don't wow me. I don't think they're generally identifiable as "Jim Lee" pieces. They look like prints I'd see in Artist Alley at a convention from an artist I don't follow. Not that that is a bad thing--I buy tons of prints from all kinds of artists at conventions--but if I'm spending 10k+, I want to immediately recognize it as Jim Lee art.

It’s a rather pleasant and fun random technique for the artist than letting water do some of the work, but this - a bit lazy- way of painting doesn't always allow to discern the artist’s style.

I do like the Superman print. Nice colors

Batman Flashpoint is next. I can’t tell based on the WIL if he going back to pencils/inks or going to keep riding this paint train...the paper looks to be more watercolor friendly.
