The movie Prometheus inspired a series of these "June favorite aliens of the month" entries in which severl different aliens and alien characters are featured in this flying saucer and blue light scene. Rather then try to explain further it it's probably best you check the rest of em here: http://www.panelsonpages.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=30&p=62495#p61741

I found this in a back ground photo of the wall space of Floating World Comics in Portland Oregon. Thank goodness the photo image was really big so that I was able to enlarge and crop this sketch from it and present it here at a good size (magnify it!). Outside of the Sal Buscema signature at the bottom left I can't tell you anything else about it unfortunately. Needless to say this is beyond awesome it's nothing short of criminal that nobody has ever showcased this before anywhere for a broad audience. And remember true believers you saw it here first on the blog site for ROM fans who aren't dicks!

That one of Rom v. Ego the Living Planet is fantastic. That guy is really talented!
ReplyDeleteWow, nice catch on the Buscema piece.
ReplyDeleteLove the Buscema piece. I wonder how many more pieces like this are out there? I would love to come across his 'idea/sketchbook' and see what he may have doodled just as concepts and such.
ReplyDeleteSal Buscema is a natural when it comes to superheroes.
ReplyDeletethanks for swinging by guys i knew you'd love that Buscema piece it's one of my best finds ever for this blog.
ReplyDeletewow that ego the living planet sketch is insane! The scale between the two - its like the ultimate splash page just waiting to happen!
ReplyDeleteyeah it's good other wise i wouldn't have featured it here but like i said i just wish he had spent a bit more time on fine tuning the ROM portion of it.
Deletehowever, tomorrow's posting will feature ROM rendered awesomely 100%.
That Sal Buscema piece was probably drawn for one of Floating World's Bill Mantlo fund raisers.
ReplyDeleteIf the two of US could draw up stuff for it (which we did) it's only fair to assume that Pal Sal did so too.
Still, nice finds!
Sorry for the multiple posts. For some reason, my laptop hates your comment section.
Delete(Or your comment section hates my laptop. Either/or)
;-)
don't worry i got rid of those comment glitches. that Buscema sketch was along the wall space with a bunch of Mantlo fundraiser pieces so you're probably right. but the weird thing is i never saw it displayed anywhere as an available auction piece or other wise. by all accounts that should have been the most coveted art just by virtue of who did it. good to see you here again ~P~. you've been pretty busy i presume with the big pain in the ass we commonly refer to as life?
DeleteThis is good art work.
