Rom deffinately rocks! Vision was a fave of mine from waaaaaay back (I'm old) great to see them teamed up. Wonderful rendering.

thanks, ROM will be back in comics next year but unfortunately we won't to see him and Vision fighting together against the dire wraiths like they did during the marvel 80s. the rights to ROM were recently bought by IDW Publications.

Snappy team! Saw the Avengers flick with my wife, She liked it better than the first but i didn't! Its cool, (Spoiler Alert)if you haven't seen it Quicksilver dies and that was a surprise since it seemed to be aiming to off Hawkeye! I prefer the first film though.
I like the make-up job they did on Paul Betteny, he fits the role. Great drawing as usual!

there's some info just below the art work that wouldn't be a bad idea for you to have a look at.

I didn't read the blurb below the art, as kids today say: "My bad!" Sorry. (I still like the drawing though!)

it's all good, we'll just chalk it up to the low attention span internet age we all live in.

I chalk it up to the fact that i shouldn't do my reports AND surf the net at the same time! (Better wake up Sargent!)

Good homage. I have always respected the Vision. For me, his greatest moment was when he fought the Silver Surfer in a volcano, while he was thinking he attacked Wanda. I would draw the cape around his neck a little bigger though, almost like Spawn

check out what i just found it's incredible romspaceknightart.blogspot.com…

ah i know what piece you're talking about now that you mention it i can see the Spawn influence there. i also always liked The Vision i had this idea about doing a Vision ROM homage since seeing The Avenger Age of Ultron. then a couple weeks later i discovered a wraith war reference The Vision makes in this Avengers back issue in a discount box (i love finding that sort of stuff for the ROM blog). that was the final inspirational push to draw this. i'm really happy the way this turned out i think it's the best fan art i've done since my ROM vs The Brood piece.

Going to have to re-watch ROBOCOP (1987). Must have missed those ROM issues.
Another great picture, a cool Rom idea.
Speaking of Sal Buscema, picked up his book recently (Sal Buscema: Marvel's fast and furious artist.)- highly recommended. Great artwork from the 70's through to present day.
Sal was a great story teller and draughtsman, sometimes let down by poor inkers (Vince Colletta, I'm looking at you.) Great interviews with the man as well as some Rom artwork and extensive interviews.
Strangely Sal hated Akin and Garvey's inks on ROM.
Which surprised me as they really injected some depth and texture with their work.
Check it out true believers!!

i love Sal's classic style but I also love Akin n' Garvey's inks they add such depth and richness to an artists pencils. but I do know some Buscema purists out there who won't tolerate anything that alters his classic angular pencils. what really always pissed me off was steve ditko replacing Sal on ROM. his past achievements aside, the work he did in the 80s and 90s was awful. ditko's retro "cookie cutter" style of penciling was very flat and uninspiring compared to the dynamic art styles of greats like Sal, Michael Golden, John Byrne, Alan Davis and Mike Zeck. as for the ROM comic cover appearances in Robocop look no further then here romspaceknightart.blogspot.com…
great comment by the way thanks for leaving it.

Pretty cool stuff man. Sal Buscema is a great artist to study because not only could he draw well but because his panel to panel storytelling is excellent.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
and what a tragedy it was when he left ROM. steve ditko who took over the penciling duties did a god awful job on the series almost made me quite picking up the book at the time.

yeah my fan art is pretty much all about marvel 80s nostalgia. even though i'm obviously a big ROM fan I always mix it up with other great characters of that era. the stuff that marvel and DC are doing these days falls flat with me I never buy new comics.

thanks, i'm really happy with this one to i think it's the best fan art i've done since the ROM vs The Brood piece.

Nice work! Poor ROM, since Marvel no longer has the license, he'll never show up in these movies or comics!

there was a tiny glimmer of hope when hasbro released a stupid heromug doll of ROM last year which finally settled the matter of who owns the rights to the character. at first that seemed like good news because marvel and hasbro have current licensed property deals with among other things the marvel Avengers line of action figures. but it doesn't seem like the will is there for marvel or hasbro to work out a new deal so that ROM can appear in the marvel universe again. it's a very discouraging situation i make it a point to not buy any new comics from marvel or anything made from hasbro. thanks for swinging by i appreciate your input. i'm glad you like this i'm afraid new fan art (when it's good) when it comes to ROM is about the only thing we will ever have to look forward to.

Yeah very welcome! Who knows what the future will bring.., but for now, fan-art and the dollar bin are the only realms of the space knight ! At least he's being remembered fondly and kept alive.

looks like i spoke to soon, ROM is making a come back in 2016 thanks to IDW Publishing.

Wow! Out of the country right now so I'm not up to speed! That's great, even though he won't be in the Marvel universe, still great news! Everything is coming back eventually, even the good stuff.

Rom: So am I part of the Avengers?
Vision: No.
Rom: Damn.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I kinda see it going more like this : )
Vision: O greatest of the spaceknight can you teach the Avengers how to defeat the dire wraiths?
ROM: I dunno bro I've been handling that business for 200 years now I'm not sure you people are ready to roll with this.

That's not a bad team up!
The new Vision too has a similar idea to Rom: a robot with a human soul
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
thanks, but i would venture to say that Machine Man and The Vision have a bit more incoming given that they are both androids learning to be more human. actually much like Data from Star Trek. where as ROM is a cyborg meaning he was once human struggling to cope with being half man half machine. it's said Robocop was partially inspired by ROM which explains why ROM comic issues show up in a couple of scenes in the movie. this art work is more of a tribute piece given that The Avengers (led by Vision) battled the wraiths in their own pages as well as in the pages of ROM.
