This was just lurking in my head for a while so I started working it up - first as a drawing, then as a photoshop colour-in and then a painting (acrylic) 640mm x 920mm.
I didn't know whether to call it "Fireflies" or "Clare de Lune" - any suggestions welcome!

Glad you like it:)
I just had a read of your Watchmen commentary and found it very enlightening. I was a superhero geek as a child and I guess the fascination stuck with me, albeit quietly, into adulthood, so I always went along to see whatever cinematic offerings came along...Well, none of them ever seemed to transcend that gulf of unbelievability or credibility and so remained (to me) as lightweight fantasy, and a guilty indulgence.
But Watchmen has changed all that and is a watershed on many levels - your comments ring true, it's a milestone which has set an almost unattainable benchmark for any who follow.:thumbsup:

I agree - though I hear that interest is dropping off, and there's a rise in the number of negative reviews. I always wonder what it is that people expect, and in what context they chose to judge. It's a strange world!

Actually, for me the only film before Watchmen that ever lived up to how I really saw the fiction world was Conan the Barbarian. Arnie looked like Buscema's Conan, the accents were mostly thick european, the soundtrack was amazing, and the fights felt painful. A spaghetti western with swords!

Take care man.

Liam.

...the character I most wanted to be retold (well) was the Phantom, minus the purple jump suit and huge holes in the plot. My version would be virtually naked like Tarzan but with the purple and mask replaced by ornate tattoos, balls by Rorschach and scowl by Wolverine - a lethal shadow. Wouldn't it make for a topical story now with all of the environmental and social displacement issues coming to the fore? I guess I should concept up my version to show what I mean...
