Great work

How did you decide who to include an where to place them, eg who to put in the foreground and who to relegate to the background?

thanks. i didn't really think about it, much. just went with whoever came to mind as i was filling them in. some characters i really like ended up pretty small.

So it's about how we use these character's stories as a safe space? I can identify with that. I love your technique here, the coloured lines really make it pop. How come some of the characters are in regular costume and some are altered like Spider-man? I know you do Project Rooftop so I'm assuming that was just a personal choice?

redesigned almost all the marvel/dc superheroes, though some are pretty minor, just to be different.

How come Wesley's holding a cowboy hat? Is that from an episode?

Fantastic work

If there's any Justice, you'll get to do the comic book series based on this.
