Superman Gallery cover sketch

I found this pencil sketch for a wrap-around Superman cover that I did back in the early '90's. The editor, Mike Carlin, didn't ask for anything specific so I suggested a big robot battle.

    Smash 'em up. Awesome example of how great lighting can translate metallic surfaces. Kudos.

    And I will pre-post for Dave Johnson "SHOE SECRETS!!!" :)

    when I first saw the pencil drawing I thought it was your take on Magnus Robot fighter, not Superman ;)

    These are always crazy cool to see. Superman Robot Fighter---I like that!

    Thanks for posting the interview, by the way, sir.

    It's the wrap-around cover for Superman: The Man of Steel Gallery #1 (and only). Here's a link: http://comics.org/details.lasso?id=58075
