This is currently selling on Ebay... 9 bids.
Obviously...
The description includes this...
"The art paper is a thin one, 210gsm in thickness"
...that's weird because I believe 210gsm would be considered poster board. That's not "thin" paper.

Anyone that has followed JB thru the years would easily see he didn’t draw like that in 2010. His work has evolved quite a bit since that original illustration was done.

...
Yes, yet still not bright enough to leave the piece of cape out of his right hand.

Fakes must be a cottage industry on sites like e-bay.

The one real aspect that's been changed is the cape and, funnily enough, that's the part that looks totally amateurish, particularly evident on his left shoulder and the base of the cape.
Strange how the inking is reminiscent of Giordano's studio in the mid 80s rather than JB's inking in the 2010s...

Well, @ least they changed the shading around the crotch, & as previously mentioned, the cape’s shape, but, wow. People are actually bidding on it?

Traced from a photocopy that left some connections between lines out.

Someone CAN'T trace well enough!
They clearly don't get the musculature in JB's art. The copier's drawing makes Superman's legs appear all bubbly. And that cape!!
It's a shame and maddening to think anyone who sees that fraudulent copy would think that's actually JB's work.

The cape and especially the feet are awful.
