Just some messing around for the fun of it. I didn't create any of the sprites or the backgrounds.

Wow, very inspiring artwork that you just did! Idea

I like The Hulk one the most! cyclops

You could add a poll for people to vote for their favorite book cover artwork of yours.

It is really nice that you included names in credits! Sprite comic book covers (100th cover posted!) 670481599

It is just me......that I think the wordings "revenge of the..." and "cap fights for...." could be used some more comic book type of font? Question

Ha Ha. It's very fun, but I like it. It's good work Sprite comic book covers (100th cover posted!) 670481599

Thanks for the encouragement! As for the fonts, I was trying to emulate the ones from the comics of the time period I was trying to recreate. When I get around to Silver Age-type covers, I'll most likely use a more comic book font for those. So keep an eye out for these!

That's awesome Sprite comic book covers (100th cover posted!) 670481599

I'm certainly hoping to, time (and MUGEN villain availability) permitting. Wink

very cool stuff.

little feedback:
- on some of your title images you have some white pixel color loss around the edges
- don't worry about crediting the coders. they didn't make the sprites. in actuality, you don't really have to credit the sprites for something like this. but if you do, don't worry about the coders at all being credited. you aren't using any of their work for something like this
- the hulk was sprite edited by bobstarsky (or something like that) and not buyog.

Yeah, I need to work on that some more.

Gotcha. I wasn't sure what the protocol is for stuff like this, so thanks for clearing that up.

Oops. Thanks for pointing that out.

Got another one, going for the Silver Age this time around. (It didn't come out quite the way I'd pictured it, of course, but it's close enough for what I was aiming for.)
