Description
This is something I've been wanting to try for a while - a straight recreation (as opposed to the mash-up cover recreations I've done in the past) of the cover of one of the comics that helped change me into a comic fan as a kid.In this case, Crisis on Infinite Earths #5.Β I am clearly nuts for doing this one.
The original cover was created by George Perez, copyright DC Comics.
Here is the original cover: img4.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20β¦

next time you do a straight recreation of something-if it involves the cockrum/grell era of the legion i would love to take crack of at inking it-just save a pencil file before you ink-love the work you put into this!

Thank you! Β I don't tend to do tight pencils for the recreations, I light box the basic shapes to get the placement correct, then ink the board while looking at a copy of the actual comic to get as close as I can to the original.

This is clearly fantastic! One of your best cover recreations to date Chris. I prefer seeing this over the colored version. Bravo
