Soul Self

Doctor Strange shows Darth Vader his Soul Self

Sorry I don't have better creator credits for this one. I tried a Google Image search with no luck, and I searched for PLASTICACTION, but only found people trying to sell me action figures.

Whoever created this image did an amazing job re-creating the astral projection effect from the Doctor Strange (2016) movie. I'd love to know what went into making it.

Ross Pearsall's Super-Team Family Covers

I have enjoyed Ross Pearsall's Super-Team Family: The Lost Covers for a long while, but I must confess that I would love to see some "process" pieces to learn how he puts them together.

He publishes a cover per day on his blog, and the variety of combinations is amazing. Having no capacity to draw myself, the idea of combining two or more pieces of already existing art appeals to me.

I also admire the creativity and ingenuity he employs in selecting the pair-ups and in putting them together in a visually logical fashion.

The access he must have to the source covers and his familiarity with them in order to produce a piece of art every single day astounds me.

I also like how he branches outside of the two major publishing houses (DC & Marvel) to include comics from independent and small publications as well.

Here are his covers so far for January 2018:
