Total surprise Christmas present from my parents! My mom just knew I loved this "Curt Swan Superman artist" and got online and ended up with this:
It's Superman #303, page 16...inks by Bob Oksner.
Sorry it's not the greatest picture quality, it has already been professionally framed so I had to take a picture of it rather than scan it.

I gave this page of original art to my brother as a Christmas gift this year. Bob Layton did this for his 2005 holiday card as a nod to the classic cover of Iron Man #126. Enjoy!

Congrats to the Superman page, Joe. Nice one, and it's actually nice seeing it framed.

Here are a couple of pages I picked up yesterday. The scene of Metron and Desaad traveling through space just blows me away. (It didn't hurt that the Dreamer is on the page also.) In the other one with Miracle Man, I love JB's use of shadow to convey light.

Wow, Wilson, apparently we have very similar tastes in original art! I love the Fourth World pages. Someday I hope to own a page from each issue of the series.

Yeah, it looks that way. What other artists do you like? Someday, I'd like to add a page from Jackson Guice's run on Dr. Strange to my collection.
