    Mike Grell Black Canary Commission

    Been sharing this all over FB today but for anyone who isn't a member there or hasn't seen it, my latest commission arrived yesterday, Black Canary by Mike Grell. Another peice where I feel the artist is one of the defining ones for the character and I though this would be a nice compliment to my Caity Lotz autogrpahed photo (best BC on TV ever IMO). Also a nod to the Green Lantern/Green Arrown series I love. Did not get an GA this time as I have nothing to complement itwith display wise. None of my current hero displays are "singles" they are all part of a theme.

        Super nice! Mike Grell is probably one of the most underrated artists in the biz. Much as I loved his work on Green Arrow and Jon Sable, my first love for him will always be THE WARLORD. Wish we could get a movie out of that property!
        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.

              Love Grell. What I find funny is try and find any original art of his from back around Sable and it's all pencils and no inks. He started a process where he would ink on acetate and then overlay it on his original pencils. Obviously from this stunning piece he can do inks too. Nice commission Mike. Just curious...how much did something like this run? I'd love to get something like this done.

              And because of all their tears,
              Their eyes can't hope to see
              The beauty that surrounds them
              Isn't it a pity".

                100% agree...
                Congrats always wanted to get some Grell artwork myself.

                  $265 shipped. Very reasonable prices, particularly for the size.

                      Edited: It's Photobucket, they are down for maintenance. Found another temporary host, so it should show now.
