Here's the Powergirl origin story I did for DC Comics' maxiseries 52. Story by Mark Waid, and pencil, inks, and colors by me.
Time was running out on me here, and I didn't get to finish coloring this story. It was fun drawing the Golden Age Superman (in his classic SUPERMAN #1 cover pose!) as well as drawing the destruction of Krypton, which every cartoonist should get to draw at least once in their career. I still hope to draw young Bruce Wayne over the dead bodies of his parents, or Peter Parker slapping a glowing spider on his hand someday...
Powergirl is such a fun character to draw, she is so intentionally over-the-top, she has more comedic possibilities than dramatic ones.
Although, after this origin and Wonder Woman's I was starting to feel weird, since I was getting to draw so many naked babies.
The inks in this one are terrific, and your figures are always top notch.
One thing I really admire is that you take the time and respond to fans and watchers alike. So often do you see artists post and then not say anything to their 100's of comments - not one word.

Is there any chance you might eventually do some covers for the upcoming Power Girl series? After your runs on Tomb Raider, Wonder Woman and Catwoman, Power Girl just seems like a perfect fit for you.
