I'm no comic book nerd (I've actually never read an American Comic from first to last page), but I'm certainly intrigued this. I've always liked the idea of crossover work like what Bruce Timm does with some anime heroines. I hope pictures pop up online so I can see them.

I want to see this very badly.

I've kind of had a backwards way of getting into comics; first was manga, then manhwa, and now finally American comics. Anime hyper

I'd love to see the different artists' interpretations of these iconic characters.

This could be pretty cool. DC's line of anime style figures for various heroines are certainly interesting.

Anything from Katsuya Terada has me interested and seeing him do some DC characters sounds quite amazing. He's also done some Hellboy images and even did a design for a Hellboy statue that I kept eying at my local shop but someone else eventually got.

Knowing Okazaki's a fan of Watchmen makes me curious what his fan art for that comic would be like.

Seeing Masakazu Katsura name on there doesn't surprise me. He's a big fan of Batman and I do predict that he'll probably draw Batman. Also I wonder if Akira Toriyama will be part of this also. I always took notice that Son Goku's origin is way too similar to Superman's origin (both escape from a doomed planet, both of their father warn their people about their planet's doom, and both have alien name). If he's going to be involved and said that he'll deisgn Superman, that confirm my theory.

Somehow I just KNEW Katsura would be involved in this. Batman fanboy that he is. Laughing

It should look great though, the last picture of his Batman I've seen did.

That's always cool, and Katsura's love of Batman is well known although I would have preferred Marvel characters (and this is Marvel's 70th anniversary, I was a Marvel Zombie in my comic book days, so sue me Wink )
