    That looks pretty cool.

    I'm not an expert on comic book heroes, so, does this charecter grow up to be Batman?
    Or was there another Gotham Guardian?!

    It's a great drawing though.

    As long as the world is a safer place, I'll be happy.

    Is this a manipulated photo or did you do this from scratch?

    The graphic started with a photo I took of my grandson dressed in halloween costume.
    Unfortunately, he tipped sideways just as I snapped pic and his left hand was outside of frame.
    That was the first thing I had to add, then lots of reduction in tones using Paint Shop Pro.
    For the final touches I made high contrast bitmaps of moon and city skyline. Everything was
    imported into Xara where all elements were arranged and edited into their final form.
    The saved file was a 300 dpi PDF which was printed into large poster for his birthday.
