Artist's Comments

Illustrated in Deleter #3 Black Drawing Ink with crow quill pen and brush on Strathmore 9x12 smooth bristol board.

From a series of Bat-Mat illustration I've been doing on and off for a year now that depicts if Bat-Man fought crime in the early 1900's. My inspiration for this illustration came from the cover of the new Batman and Robin series written by the insanely talented Grant Morrison.

Unlike a few of my previous the Bat-Man illustrations, I wanted to depict Bat-Man and Robin a bit differently. This time more along the lines of an Alan Quartermain style adventurer with the way both Bat-Man and Robin's costumes look. Less of the circus performer look with more of a uniformed canvas feel to it. Giving the suggestions that their crime-fighting wasn't limited to Gotham City but across the globe.

Very cool, "the Bat-man" looks quite the gentleman.

Thank you!! Kind of a cross between spats and motorcycle riding pants.
