Once again… Superman: Red Son
by postu | | December 19th, 2009 | arts & graphics, comics, postu, reviews | No Comments »
Today I’m writing probably the last time about Superman: Red Son. Along with the whole Batman stuff recently I’ve scanned also the very last pages of that comicbook. Thematically it doesn’t go together, therefore I made the decision to spread it particular.
This day we are talking about the historical context between the Superman-family, the house of El, and the rich and powerful family of Luthor. In his elseworlds story Mark Millar, writer of Red Son, took advantage of the Superman creators’ “L-letter-affinity”. Luthor, Lane, Lang, -El, -L… you know.
Let me quote some lines. Original panels below.
Mankind had evolved to become the most advanced species in the known universe, inspired and led by a billion years of the Luthor lineage.
Lena Luthor; the artist, Lombard Luthor; the imaginer, Lori Luth-145; the mathemagician, Jordan Luth-1938 [editor's note: first link to the El’s]; pioneering necronaut and first man to set foot in the afterlife.
Alex-L, Jordan-L, Lana-L and, of course, Lex Luthor’s great-grandson to the power of fifty; a young man called Jor-L whose iq exceeded that of even his beloved ancestor.

Isn’t that exciting? Apart from that we’re talking about an elseworlds story I think the idea isn’t that odd. At least we have an explanation for the relationship between Supergirl and Lex Luthor, because as is well known it’s not that love thing. Lex is a part of Kara’s family and she probably knows it unconscious!
Only if the factor “time” comes into play it’s going to be paradox. THE ancestor of the Luthors (at least in the Superman continuity) cannot meet up with the Last Son of Krypton, youngest member out of the house of El.
Definitely I can say that I’ve read one of the brightest Superman comicbooks of our time. I recommend it absolutely!
I Know Why Frank Miller Wept, Motherfucker!

The Bride Of Corinth

Her name is Edéa. She is the prototype of a larger series of android-mannequins that are considered “a bigger, better and much more complex lifeform” by their makers. She works through human blood. Sadly for her, her A.I. resembles a human soul. Sadly for her creators, she got free. Bad for her own spirit, the hunger is slowly driving her mad.

Okay guys, the thing is that I’m currently working on the final design for the BATMAN:golgothik’s Joker. And I’m still not sure which is the best. Therefor, I’ve got a special gift for my dear readers tonight! Not one, but two original Joker drawings, freshly baked in the batpawn’s a(u)rtistic kitchen. So, who is it going to be? Mister ‘Glamourface McFetish’ Clown, or Aleister Clowney? You choose!

Did you notice something? Take a look at the panels. I’ve uploaded more than 140 new Superman images. I wonder always how many masterpieces are there… in the world wide web.
Anarchy in Black

Do you remember? I’d promised to scan some panels – just for you! Today I break the first ground. Now. Admittedly, it’s not Superman: For Tomorrow but rather Superman: Red Son… even though it’s more than cool!
Let’s start with the „Anarchy in Black“:

During the past few weeks I’ve done three photoshop works for the incredible Brenkster Tools. The first one was originally a film poster of a 70s porno movie, which is called Hungy Mouth.
“
Iconic” is the appropriate word, but take a look at what I’ve tinkered in my chamber of creativity!
Another idea was to create a frontcover for the imaginary (as yet!) Brenkster Tools magazine, with a summary of all our recent blog posts – in a gossip manner. But on a high level, with all that goes with it, covergirls and all the shit.
Here is my first draft, even if I don’t like it. It’s definitely NOT brenkster. Yeah, brenkster is an adjective.
I love my second try as much more, it appeales so much minimalist, sophisticated and smoothing. Totally brenkster!
If it’s going well I’ll try to do such things regularly. Oh, and remember: all these works will be published on Flickr!
