Yet Alan Scott's costume is remarkably credible as done by JB ... elegant,
even!
••
In MAN OF LA MANCHA, when Don Quixote dies, Aldonza refuses to accept
it, saying a man died, but Don Quixote did not. "Believe, Sancho," she says.
That should be the mantra for anyone called upon to make a superhero
movie, or draw a superhero comic. Believe. . .

Man I just have to comment more:
Love the perspective and overall layout of the piece, appropriately showcasing every character.
The Tinkerer looks great.
I really enjoy how Green Lantern breaks the border with his cape, swooping in from the left.
This is just a fantastic piece! I personally have no attachment to the Alan Scott Green Lantern, but if you replaced him with Spider-Man, this would be at the top of my list of commissions that make me jealous!
Congrats to the owner/commissioner.

I love the way you drew the Crime Master's mask (among many many other things in the drawing obviously). Crime Master has always been my favorite villian in old Spider-man lore. Really cool idea and as usual even better execution.

I love the idea of using some early, largely forgotten Lee/Ditko Spider-Man villains -- the Terrible Tinkerer, the Living Brain, the first Spider-Slayer, even the Crime-Master. Wow!
