The first of our series of ads taken from the $1 comic bin is a 1984 one for Kenner Super Powers figures. How many did you have?
THESE WERE THE BEST ACTION FIGURES. I had Superman, Batman, Green Lantern, Robin, Lex Luthor, and the Flash. I had Mr. Freeze, too, but he was released later.

Just for fun I started doing concepts for a faux Justice League CG movie. I’ve always been a huge fan of Bruce Timm and the DC Timmverse he helped create, and I thought it would be cool to basically design the JLA movie that I would direct if given the chance. I didn’t do any huge drastic changes because I didn’t want to betray the characters in terms of who they are and what they’re about.
Among the flourishes Araya has added are Jack Kirby-like spots on John Stewart’s Green Lantern outfit and a Wonder Woman whose upbringing on Paradise Island — here’s his slightly not-safe-for-work sketch of that tropical locale — doesn’t make her a team player. (“I feel like her acceptance of men would be a very slow, gradual thing and it would never be 100%,” Araya notes.) Here’s an overview of his many superheroic rejiggerings.

All-American Comics #21 (Dec 1940)
DC Superheroes by José Luis García-López
Jose Luis Garcia-Lopez basically was DC Comics to me in the 80’s. His stuff was on everything - my Super Powers action figures, my pajamas, my slippers… I still love this art and I will reblog it for always.

JLA #3 (1997) written by Grant Morrison, pencils by Howard Porter, inks by John Dell
My favorite incarnation of the Justic League by far. Morrison and Porter’s JLA is one of my favorite comics ever.
