A beautiful painted spread of Superman delivering the Christmas tree to start off the festive season in Metropolis. This is from Superman: Peace on Earth by Alex Ross and Alex Dini, released in 1998. Have a great Christmas!

The proof copy arrived yesterday. Overall, I like the look and feel of it. After a look through, I can see a page that needs adjusting to help clarity. I also found a minor issue which affects every single page, so I'll have to change every pdf and reupload to the printers website.

My son asked me my favourite song. "That's hard to answer, so many songs, moods..." He asked again. I said Marcella Detroit's I Believe. Who knew? What's your answer?
