Title: Superman and the Justice League busts
Post by: eydylhands on July 16, 2005, 11:09:36 PM
Hi,
I just found this site while looking for reference on an upcoming project.
Below are a few of my Superman related sculpts.

I can make out Superman, Batman, and J'onn J'onzz, but I can't really tell who the other ones are. Are they JLU members?

No they are regular JLA members.

From left to right:

Hal Jordan: Green Lantern
Guy in cloak I don't recognise
Aquaman
Wonder Woman
Superman
Atom?
Batman
Martian Manhunter

That's how I see them anyway, maybe i'm wrong.

They are great likenesses regardless, you do indeed have skill.

Green Lantern
THe Spectre
Aquaman
Wonder Woman
Superman
THe Flash
Batman
Martian Manhunter

IN the background the green heads you sticking up are (zan and Janna) the wonder twins. THe taller green head is Puck from Alpha Flight. They were unfinished at the time I took the pic.

Ah the Spectre and Flash, I was confused due to the lack of "lightning" stripes on him and there are a number of cloak wearing heroes so I didn't recognise Spectre.

Does anyone else have a creepy hood like the Spectre?  I'm thinking...

no, LOL!

The Spectre is cool, he was also created by Jerry Siegel as everyone here knows, or I sure hope so :)

Yeah, that's what I'm thinking...Hourman had a combined cowl and cape, but nothing like the Spectre...

The Spectre may have been best in another age, but by gawd he was cool...sheet...

You have to go a long way back, but for a while Dr Occult wore a cloak not too unlike the Specter's.  And there was the Green Lama.

But overall, it's a look that didn't really catch on with the spandex crowd. :wink:

Hah, the Green Lama sent me to a search engine...always nice to learn more about a somewhat more obscure character... 8)

Good old Green Lama.  Possibly the only superhero ever to have the real name "Jethro."

At least we know Lamont Cranston wasn't the most picked-on guy back at Hero School.  :lol:

Dr. Occult yet another character by Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster! I am starting to see a theme here ;) I think he is more known for wearing his treach coat and hat.

Was the Green Lama ever part of the JLA?  :wink:

Moonknight?  The Teen Titans' Raven?  I'm sure there are others, including various Spectre rip-offs.

Does anyone know, did Dr.Occult make any pre-Crisis appearances after the famous trench-coat brigade issue of Alan Moore's Swamp Thing (War in Heaven annual)?  The one that featured the end of Zatarra?
