I've been a lifelong fan of Supergirl and writing about her for 17 years. Would love to be part of the Supergirl movie celebration!

@paulkaminski.bsky.social @danslott.bsky.social Once you wrap the green K business, I’d love you to consider making Superman Unlimited a Superman Family showcase, bringing us tales of Metropolis and beyond. The Man-Bat and Jon issues are standouts, and I bet the Lois spotlight will be great too

Superman Unlimited #7 review
The best thing about this cover is the lettering, that ‘terror’ looks great. As for the illo by regular series artist Rafael Albuquerque, it’s not brilliant. My best guess is that the central figur…

@paulkaminski.bsky.social I love the current Action Comics, but how about swapping out the ‘Superman’ above the Action Comics masthead for ‘Superboy’. Or, if DC really wants ‘Superman’ in there, go old school: ‘The Adventures of Superman when he was a boy’.

Sometimes you start a sketch and it just doesn't feel right. That was the case with this one. It didn't work...so I ditched it. Sometimes it's best to step away from a piece and clear your head. It opens up solutions you may have ignored during your first attempt and takes some pressure off.
