I've been a fan of two things for my entire life: comic books and professional wrestling.



Randy Savage passed away about nine months ago, and with the internet sensation surrounding his passing, it was hard not to become overwhelmed by it... enough to the point that you have a dream where The Macho Man and yourself are Green Lanterns trying to defend the universe.



This was pencilled and inked by hand, but completely colored in Photoshop CS5. This was also my first attempt to use Photoshop (I've previously used Paint Shop Pro; I figured if you're gonna practice, practice big) so critiques would be helpful (I don't have a premium membership to "request critiques," just give me an honest opinion).



And if you're gonna save or "Favorite" a picture? Have the balls to leave a comment and say what you liked about it or at least why you "favorite-ed" it.
