I've always loved the Jay Scott Pike cover on the issue that introduced Dolphin...
one of my favorite obscure DC stories too. Great job on the custom.

Love that cover myself. No goofy Photoshop effects, no super-saturated colors, just good artwork, proper physiology and, over and above, simplicity. Sometimes, less is more or, in this case, just enough. Today's comics artists could learn a thing or two from the past...
sigpic Oh then, what's this? Big flashy lighty thing, that's what brought me here! Big flashy lighty things have got me written all over them. Not actually. But give me time. And a crayon.

Agreed! I trace it back to the Rob Leifeld & Jim Lee Xmen era - let's use a ton of hash marks and a thousand lines. I prefer the cleaner look of the older comics.
I just happened to see this again in a Google search and wanted to pop on to say I like it...completely forgetting that I had already done so over two years ago. Well-- still true!
My only complaint on this fabulous custom....the shirt should have been white. However she looks great and was on my to do list years ago. Now I I have no collection so won't get around to her. even planned a special box for her with her 70s set of DC females. Dolphin, Alien planet NOT Tamaran Starfire the Raven haired freedom fighter. Thorn. For the life of me I can't remember the other three. All DC solo ladies of the seventies. Oh Rima. Poison Ivy and.........well I had a 90's tight purple outfit Catwoman that would have worked with the others.
