SUPERMAN!!!!


One of my favorite moments in cinema is during the climax of the Iron Giant when the giant utters the word "Superman" as he sacrifices himself to save the world. It's poetic, heroic, beautiful. This painting is kind of the same thing, but crappy and gross and ridiculous. On a completely different note, oh my shit I can't wait for the season finale of Breaking Bad this Sunday on AMC. What an amazing show, good lord it's so friggin' good.

Man, that part hits me too. Every time. You think it wouldn't since you know it's coming.

Also, really crazy stuff down below on the Christmas carol. I love the flaming head ghosts.

That's a sweet lookin man o'steel there Jimmy! I have no idea what you are talking about regarding Breaking Bad but I'm totally gonna take your word for it. I can't wait to kick it this weekend!

ps. I hope you are going to follow suit with a Lois, Jimmy, Ma and Paw Kent. I'd throw in a crazy, Brad Pitt kind of handsome midget Bizarro.

Whutup Colin? Been following your work sporadically through Ian ever since we went to your showing at that coffee shop in San Jose about 10 years ago. Keep up the good work man.
