      Oh hell yeah! That stuff is phenomenal! Retro, classic yet modern all at the same time. This is how you make Superman fresh without changing the core of the character or armoring up the uniform...

          That is an amazing collection of work. I love the design elements and the Fleisher shield emblem. Gives me a few ideas of my own...
          I almost had a psychic girlfriend but she dumped me before we met.

          If anyone here believes in psychokinesis, please raise my hand.

              Cool stuff! Retro, yet modern. I like it and I can already sense that Scott has the idea for a new custom up his sleeve....
              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.

                      Looks like we found someone who should run DC

                                      I love the Fleischer Superman logo. Heck, I was thinking about getting it as a tattoo!

                                          They should also do a retro live-action Supes film...that would absolutely rule as well.

                                              I'm not a huge Supes fan, but Dt's art is awesome!! "New Retro" is a look I really like.

                                              His "Maid of Might" is great, too!

                                                      Love the Supergirl, his Superman looks a little more like Superboy, tho.
