Cool Images – Superman redesigned
Posted by LiveFor on March 5, 2010
Over on his blog Warren Ellis recently posted the following challenge:
You are an artist/designer. You have to put together the cover for a comic called SUPERMAN. It is issue 1 of this book.
You have been told that Superman is a man who dresses predominantly in a shade of blue, and wears a red S symbol. You know nothing else about the character.
The cover must include a logo and the text THE COMPLETE STORY OF THE DARING EXPLOITS OF THE ONE AND ONLY SUPERMAN.
And that’s it.
It’s up to you what kind of company you’re at. What kind of comics you make. How you translate that description of Superman. What era you’re in. Who you are, even. Go nuts with it.
You have one week. Go.
I think you will agree that it has produced some excellent ones so far and it runs until Sunday. Check out Whitechapel for more images.
