Dark Knight sketch

Description

So yesterday I got my hands on Frank Miller's Batman: The Dark Knight Returns, because it's such an awesome book, through the library and spent last night re-reading it. Well, I got that artist itch that comes at 2 or 3 AM and just started sketching one of the final scenes where Batman goes one-on-one with Superman. If you can believe it, these figures fit within a 4x4" square. I like working small. Anyway, I'm going to be making this into a colored, finished 10x15" pin-up for print. It will be epic, just you wait. :D

Also, is it just me or does Batman: The Dark Knight Returns flow on a similar wavelength with Watchmen? I sort of got that vibe.

That really is an awesome book, and a very well done sketch! I agree with it being the same sort of vibe too. Actually, you could argue that Batman is the same as Nightowl. And both stories have the same idea that the government has disowned heroes and treats them like criminals. Again, nice work! This would be a cool postcard size print as well as the large size.
