Disclaimer: No comics were harmed in the making of this paper airplane. -The Management
From the cover art of a comic book, I manage to fold a paper airplane and make it into art. Once you look a little closer at these illustrations, you start to see the work and fine detail in them. So often these artworks are limited to the collectors or worse yet, those who have them and forget about them.
I like to think I am preserving a bit of history here, making the most of the little patch of history I can touch on. You can see by the condition of the cover that I read this issue many times. I was never very good at collecting these, at least not from an investment perspective.
This particular cover is from the Silver Age of Comics, 1973. It has a werewolf illustration, so you know something exciting is about to happen! If you dig into these vintage comics, you start to find little treasures that are worth keeping. I have a bunch of these old comics, and this seemed like the best thing to do with them, because I can.
This is “Appropriation Art”, or at least it’s my version of it. It’s a tribute to my youth, and the time I spent reading comic books. -YoPedro

This image is available on PIXELS or RedBubble as a print, or a whole slew of products, it boggles the mind. One of the greatest things about art these days is the ability to print it on so many different items. For an artist this is quite an exciting time, to know that buyers of art are willing to share artwork in such wonderful new ways.
If you would prefer a signed print, those are available too. -YoPedro
