Buck, I originally drew this piece as a b&w commission. I later colored it just for kicks. If you’d like a 11×17 color print, please contact me through the email at the end of the article. Thanks!

Kerry, that is wonderful! Sort of a riff on the famous rooftop scene that’s the cover f “Batman From the 30s to the 70s.”

I meant “the cover OF…” That lone “f” didn’t look too good!
