Reign Of The Rorschachs




For this week's The Line It Is Drawn, the broad topic was:

A follower on Twitter suggested “Reign of the Rorshachs” (Rorschach of Steel, Rorshach of Tomorrow, Kid Rorshach, Last son of New York).  If you don't get the reference, 20 years ago (jeez, has it been that long?) DC Comics killed off Superman and four "supermen" took over his titles (The Eradicator, Cyborg Superman, Steel, and Superboy) in order to keep the buzz going and increase sales.  There you have it.

A big welcome to 10 new ongoing artists this week, who were all vying for the one alternate position.  They all did some amazing work during the try-outs and all were too good to be cut!  It will make me step up my game, for sure (if time allows it!)

See you next week.

I'm against DC's project, but I really love your drawing. Never thought Reign of the Supermen could be so inspiring.
