And I just ordered this to go with the Spider-Man.  I imagine that it's going to be huge sitting next to it.

Hm. That Spider-Woman bust looks like I drew it 'round 1975! Like the Tigra mini -- think I must seek that one out.

I sure do wish, tho, that the leaping Batgirl had her legs positioned differently!

Beautiful sculpt on Supreme. What a pity it's wasted.

(Hey! I get to say that! Rob Liefeld told me his very own self that he "created" Supreme just for me! Because, you know, if I was going to work on a Superman rip off, I would want it to be somebody else's Superman rip off, not one I came up with on my own!)

A talented friend of mine bought the same Supreme statue and re-worked into Superman and Krypto.  It really looked nice.  Unfortunately, it, along with all his other stuff, went with his house during Hurricane Katrina. 

I had ordered a same-size true Pieta to go with the Mar-vell one, but it never shipped and I had to get my money back. 

The Batgirl legs are positioned awkwardly. The angle of the shot emphasizes it a bit too much, too.  

The Tigra bust is really nice, JB.  The tail is separate from the base and seems very fragile.  But it adds a nice effect.

I never knew Rob "created" Supreme for you to do. That's funny. (I'll admit it was a guilty pleasure of mine to read. Chris Sprouse's artwork on the title was too good to pass up.)

John:
Hey, Gary Lee! Does your Vision have a kinda "sloppy" paint job, with brush strokes visible?
*********

Yeah, looks like they painted the body of the Vision too lightly with the green--perhaps the yellow is bleeding through in spots?  The face is neatly done, though.
