Tuesday WIP

The idea is that Batman really has his hands full with a giant berzerk ape. Bloody, ripped to tatters. Could really use a hand from someone with super strength and invulnerability. And who zooms by over head without a look his way. Sumbitch Superman. Going to spin the Earth backwards or something. It's going in Batman's book Superman.

Ha! Yes--hilarious!

Tho' I had to look twie to see Batman in there (it's early yet...).

I wanna see the final!

Yeah, take it to finish! Go Ellis. What does your last sentence mean? "It's going in Batman's book Superman." Does Batman keep a book of gripes against Superman?

Tom Moon said...

Is that your visual pun for the day Ellis? An ape carrying a monkey wrench?

I thought "It's going in the book" was that book of grievances people keep mentally. Batman can trot this incident out when Superman is having Kryptonite problems.

Thanks for the comments. I'm going to Kinkos, print this out 8 by 10 on index card, (5 times so I can start over) , and paint it with gray cartoon-color acrylic. We'll see how it goes.

I knew just what you mean by "It's going in Batman's book"...and I laffed!

Tom Moon said...

Do you think today's Batman ever really wants help from Superman? I think he's got his pride.

On the very, very few occasions I pick up something DC, I always get the sense of a comradeship between the two forged in popularity...like they each know they're still DC's two hottest properties, and it makes 'em a little smug. Martian Manhunter comes along to ask a question and you can almost see the two of 'em roll their eyes....

Maybe I'm just projecting.

Batman "Martian Manhunter. Fire is your weakness? Kind of like Frankenstein." Superman grins behind MM's back.

@ Ellis: BIG "HA!"
