I found this beautiful piece by Michael Cho on a couple of sites today – it’s the cover of a new hardbound collection of Superboy comics from the 1940s. The composition, the colors, the red wagon, the antiquated design of Superboy’s shorts — it captures perfectly a lost, impossible era of innocence and nostalgia. It’s the era every kid lived in when he started collecting comics.
And the pup, probably a nod to Krypto, is simply wonderful.
Personally: keep the stories. I’d rather have a framed print of this, instead.
The wagon sits on my front porch.
