Description This...is possible the coolest thing I've ever drawn. It's like I released a can of Whoop-Ass on paper and the particles of pencil and ink did the rest. The series Detective Conan is reaching its 700th chapter sometime in July and I figured I masy as well draw something for it, given that Action Comics, the first cover of which this drawing is a parody, has been running for 70 years, so there's a lucky "7" parallel there.

For comparison, here's the original:[link]
It's been parodied many times by Superman artists as well as other comic series: [link]

I've always wanted to do some kind of Superman/DC mashup and this was the perfect opportunity I suppose. Modifying the "Action Comics" logo to spell out "Shonen Sunday" was probably the hardest part of all of this, and it shows. I'm going to keep adding things onto this including the SS issue number the 700th file will appear in, and possibly even color (though I can't say I'm the best at that ).

Series success...parody..up, up, and away!

For a WIP, this is turning out really really good so far! I like the amount of effort and detail you've put into this so far. The lineart is pretty smooth and clean so far. Nicely done with the text font so far too.
