(Stormwatch #9, Cornell & Sepulveda)

This happens while the team is in a group psychic link, just after Apollo has saved Midnighter.

Definitely going to steal this idea for a story someday. :)

Damn this is cool.

Taking a chisel to marble, sculptor Mauro Perucchetti put a superhero twist on Michelangelo’s “The Creation of Adam” painting by sculpting the “World’s Finest” lineup of Batman and Superman (with Superman apparently ironically modeled after a self-portrait of the artist himself). Originally displayed as a focal piece of his “Modern Day Heroes” installment at the Halcyon Gallery in London back in 2010, the work has since been displayed at several venues around the world. The statue’s blank white exterior stands in contrast with much of his more recent work, which includes brightly colored translucent glass sculptures of police batons, skulls, grenades, gel capsules, hypodermic needles and other icons associated with death and modern stigmas. Of course, he also sculpted the Buddha in Skittle hues, returning once again to an irreverently infusing religious symbolism with his pop culture sensibilities. See more images of Perucchetti’s “Modern Heroes” sculpture, along with a video of it on display as part of a wider outdoor exhibit, after the jump.

I want fic based on this sculpture. Like, Bruce sees it and immediately buys it, but then shenanigans ensue because where the hell can he keep it without someone seeing it and teasing him about it. The other scenario is that he actually commissioned it.

I suspect he commissioned it as Bruce Wayne—he intended to have their positions reversed to tease Clark but the sculptor heard him wrong, and now Bruce is stuck with this gorgeous sexy statue that he doesn’t dare let anyone see.
He hides it in an obscure room in the cave and sneaks in there now and then to look at it. :)

“…for the contingent out there who sneer at heroes like Superman and Wonder Woman and Captain America, those icons who still, at their core, represent selfless sacrifice for the greater good, and who justify their contempt by saying, oh, it’s so unrealistic, no one would ever be so noble… grow up. Seriously. Cynicism is not maturity, do not mistake the one for the other. If you truly cannot accept a story where someone does the right thing because it’s the right thing to do, that says far more about who you are than these characters.”
