illustration friday: speed

It's shaping up to be an awesome year in mainstream comics. Marvel is about to drop Civil War, while DC is wrapping up Infinite Crisis to be followed by 52. The fanboy in me just creamed his pants. Since I've missed the past month or so of illFriday topics reading comic books, thought I'd do something with capes and tights. And surprisingly, no breasts. It's a scene where Superboy-Prime just slaughtered a bunch of Titans and the Flashes rush in to the rescue.

Wow - this has a lot of great action! I like the yellow zappy things and the background - it kind of looks like a bar code!

Love your style on this- the spikey shoes are way too cool- good for that extra traction to get the speed I suppose! Your work is always top notch!!

You draw very well. It looks like you've been in the business for a long time.

Whenever I ask myself, "Self, if you could have one superpower in this real world, what would it be?" Invulnerability, telekinisis, super strength are all up there, but superspeed always seems to triumph. Imagine the versatility! At any rate, the Flash family has alwasy been a fave of mine.
This illo is amazing.
But is that a real story line you are referencing? Is there really going to be a titanic S-boy/Titans battle? Oootah!

right on for all the great comments again folks! ill be sure to post more after things start to slow down for me.

Francis - yes, this storyline happened somewhere in the middle of infinite crisis (issue 3 maybe 4). superboy-prime goes nuts and massacres a bunch of titans before the flashes swoop in. awesome stuff.
