1950 BATMAN Cover Recreation Painting!

  I always loved this famous action-packed BATMAN cover from 1950, as drawn by Win Mortimer.

I wanted to recreate it in a more realistic manner, so here it is, rendered in ink, marker, colored pencil, and crayon, with text elements added atop the art!

BATMAN #197 Cover Recreation! Sensational 60s Fun!

 I was recently commissioned to recreate the famous cover to BATMAN #197, but in the style of the 90s BATMAN-THE ANIMATED SERIES!

It was so much fun reinterpreting the art of master comics artist Carmine Infantino, trying to evoke his perfect composition and sense of drama!

The goal was to also retain the original "pop art" colors, as seen on the original 1967 comic book cover!
