Hey, all! Glad to see the positive reaction to the big anniversary issue! I'm really proud to have been a part of it, even if for only 5 pages. I thought it might be cool to share some of my preliminary sketches, give you a little peek at the stuff that is usually never seen. Hats off to my editor Steve Wacker who gave me the ball and really let me run with it! If anyone dug my stuff enough to want to own it, a couple of pages from my story as well as some of my other covers are up for sale on eBay. Best, Eric ![[Linked Image]](http://www.ericwight.com/clark.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://www.ericwight.com/cosmic%20boy.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://www.ericwight.com/livewire.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://www.ericwight.com/saturn%20girl.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://www.ericwight.com/thumbs%201-2.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://www.ericwight.com/thumbs%203-37.jpg)

Hey Eric! Thanks for sharing these with us, especially the cover. You're wrap around to the main story worked really well I thought. Now, on to eBay because I just got to get me some original Garth art.

Re: the cover. I can place everyone except the blonde in the cape in the upper left. Is that supposed to be Andromeda?

Great cover Eric, but one member is missing...Ferro!
Kudos anyway! Awesome stuff! Keep it coming!
The best way to find out where you're from is to find out where you're going and then work backwards.
Where are you going?
I don't know!
Spooooooon!!!

Nice stuff, Eric! The freckles on "Garth" are an inspired touch.

Thanks so much for posting, Eric!
Your art on this book was beautiful... just perfect for the framing sequences, I thought!
White. A blank page or canvas. His favorite. So... many... possibilities.

Hey Eric,
I've got to say I loved your pages. Great job. Steve shpwed them to us when we were in the offices months ago and I was just blown away. I hope he's keeping you busy.

Or you could just go here to see the inked (not the colored one though) up for sale. And SoM, I would like a copy of the color one if you still have it. Just e-mail it to me. Thanks.

Are you going to have to do any tweaking - just out of curiousity, since Umbra and Dreamer have changed costumes since it was drawn, clearly? Nice pic though

Thanks for sharing, Eric -- the Apokolips page actually looks more awe-inspiring in b/w. Loved the sketches too -- hope to see your work in these pages again soon!
