Description
Ok yet another worn cover. I've been wanting to do a Starman piece for some time now and finally got the chance because of .Scott did a Golden Age Starman sketch for me and WOW did he do an awesome job on on it! His art fits the vintage designs so perfectly. I hope we can collab again soon!
For this one i re-created the Adventure Comics logo, as well as the other symbols in Illustrator. The rest was done in Photoshop.

I would love to do a collab with you some time. I was very inspired by your vintage look and the pen scribbles are genius in their simplicity and the "why the hell didn't I think of that?" factor.
This is an older picture of my character Mankrow and pales in comparison to your vintage look. So, if you want, hit me up and I will draw something quick like. When you find time of course.

Thanks! I'm glad you enjoy it I got the idea for doing the scribbling from and decided to take it a bit further. Be sure to check out his gallery, it rocks!
I'll let you know if i become available for collab work. I'm doing paid commissions right now for $35 a pop, so if you're interested in getting something from me sooner that might be an option
