Here are a couple of really great images that I can't track, so any comment with the answer or a tip is appreciated. I've tried everything, but I can't identify their author and origin.
This first one feels like an ID picture. It has his early 80s look, but the coloring looks like something done after 1995. His hairstyle is similar to those of characters drawn by José Luis García López or George Pérez.
This second one is really, really cool. I'm going to be using it a lot. It has the word 'detective' written all over it. It looks modern, I suspect it comes from his appearance in Booster Gold.
Update:
Got it! I got the second one. It's Jurgens. Booster Gold #16, page 4, panel 6. I kinda remembered the way the sky looked. The funny thing is that it's a great portrait, one of the greatest, but it's surrounded by so-so art by the same artist. He's also not making such a serious analysis as it would seem. He's only thinking about trusting Booster's sister.
Here's another good one from the next page:
Now I'm only missing the info of the irst pic.
The first one looks like a cross between Dan Jurgens and George Perez, so maybe their "Teen Titans" series?
ReplyDeleteI'll check that.

So only the first pic remains a mystery.
The first one looks very house-style early 80s to me. Maybe it's from some stock promotional art or even the role-playing game. I'm at a loss.

Wow, thanks for the help. I really didn't expect any.
ReplyDeleteI think we all agree that it looks like something from the 80s (despite the shading). It also strikes me as promotional art. García López handled all of that back then, however, after checking his Ralph (his did his feature in 'tec #500, one of the greatest) I concluded that it was not him. I might also be a profile picture for a story. The weird thing is that the shading looks like something from the mid 90s, but they never used the red uniform back then.
I am 100% positive that the first pic is from Justice League of America #200. Page #65 in fact. The artist is George Perez.
ReplyDeleteThe colours seem to have been slightly updated though so I'm not sure if that issue has been reprinted somewhere, which would be the source of this particular version.
You're welcome. :D
Thank you Anonymous! Btw, love your work with the hacktivism and stuff!!
ReplyDeleteI can confirm it - the first pic is from JLA #200. /Hellstone
