Curt Swan Superman?

<< < (2/3) > >>

Not Swan.  The hands are completely wrong, not to mention the abs.  Swan always put the middle fingers together and spaces on either side...sort of as a reverse Vulcan salute.

For example:

It looks like someone like Rich Buckler trying to do a Curt Swan drawing.

JMHO

Woah, I thought Buckler too. Woo-hoo!

For what its worth, it doesn't seem like Swan to me.

Shame the one image of the entire piece isn't larger, as there appears to be a hard-to-read signature (too long to be "Curt Swan") on the bottom right corner.

JVJ (RIP):
I'm not able to weigh in on Swan-as-penciller here, beyond the seemingly obvious inquiry, 'Wouldn't he be capable of rendering the S-logo accurately in his sleep by this time?'

My entire response to this drawing is twisted downward several notches by the Superman emblem. It looks like the first time the artist has SEEN it, let alone been asked to DRAW it. What do you think?

Peace, Jim (|:{>

I contacted the poster thru CAF, but didn't get a response; then I added a comment.
