[deadlyaj]

He is def my superhero

I just ordered like 4 of these on a t-shirt from his website

1. That's fucking awesome. But I still like the pic of Obama posing with the Superman statue better.

Just because it's so damn cute.

2. I really love this ...

because when Alex Ross touches brush to canvas you always get something very fierce and amazing!

3. Now that's cool!

4. Wow, Alex Ross isn't a right winger? That's pretty surprising.

Not because I know anything about him, just because so many comic artists seem to be libertarian wackos. Something about his Rockwellian painting made me assume he was conservative too.

5. No hes a lefty

He did a painting called "make love not war" which has cheney and bush embracing in a kiss. Sure to have some total cringe and piss-off factor

[ContinentalOp]

6. Haha, awesome. I had no idea

[deadlyaj]

7. I love his work -- so glad hes a lefty

8. bush and liberty on a shirt

9. I'm pretty sure all the Marvel brass are solidly Democratic/liberal (Joe Quesada, Stan Lee etc)

although I know they've worked much more in the writing/editorial department than doing the actual artwork.

10. I wore this shirt tonight!

I got 3 "I love that shirt!" and "Where did you get it?" comments from people under 30 and got the stink-eye from some older lady, probably in her 60s. I just smiled at her though. ;)
