If you haven’t read this comics you damn well should.

I got the best present from DC Comics yesterday. I'm cleared to show you our new cover for the Superman's Pal Jimmy Olsen hardcover collection! "Labor of Love" doesn't begin to describe this. Ten days of work! I hope it's as fun to examine as it was to draw. And yes, the book will include a map key identifying everyone in the crowd.

This cover, like the whole book, was colored by the great Nathan Fairbairn, who really went above and beyond. And the book also contains a bunch of extras. New essays by Matt Fraction, tons of unseen sketches. And several stories by the Jimmy team that ran outside of the main Jimmy Olsen title.

Superman’s Pal Jimmy Olsen the Deluxe Edition will be in stores this summer.

What do you get if you use two broom heads and a few Stormtrooper figures?

A miniature scene from Andor of course!

All shot practically using real figures, lighting and miniature sets.

“Dance. Fill your lungs. Feel the warmth on your skin. Throw your head back. Throw your arms up. Let it all in. Let it all out. Just dance.”

“Every drop of water adds its own flavour to the ocean.”

Happy Mermay! This is Tritor, my favourite aquatic-themed toy robot from my collection. They have just such an expressive face!

2 “Hey you big jerk, I’m gonna cut you a break today and give you a chance to walk away scott free! Unless of course you’d rather I kick your ass all the way back to prison like I always do!” 😡

3 “Oh well, it was worth a shot!” 😅🤦🏻‍♂️

“You could do it alone with the help of a machine, but the satisfaction of success wouldn’t be shared with anyone.”

Hi Tumblr! I used to be here but then I went away and now I’m back. Nice to be back. Plan is to put my toy photos up here on the reg. Some older ones and new ones too. Looking to meet other toy photographers and vintage toy fans. Come say hi.
