The DC Comics Solicitations for November Deconstructed

Welcome to a new ongoing feature at Comics Alliance, where we present and take apart each month's solicitations from Marvel and DC.

Chicago-based artist Steve Seeley taps some beloved comic book and action figure icons in his bootleg depictions of Superman, Batman and He-Man that'll make you believe that the Man of Steel can save the heck out of a grizzly bear and that adult and non-porn film star Sasha Grey could make a fine Teela if they ever push forward with a new MOTU movie. Seely's creations will also be on display off of the Internet from September 10-October 17 at Chicago's Rotofugi Gallery.
