Iron Gelatomettista Challenger: Michael Turner!

It's with great honor that we welcome today's challenger, Michael Turner! Being one of the biggest names in today's industry, he is here to challenge our very own, Jim Lee! In what promises to be perhaps the biggest challenge ever showcased here, and maybe just one of the greatest battles of all time!

The studio battle between Wildstorm, and Aspen has been very close so far with Wildstorm taking 2 of the 3 battles, but to make it interesting we have decided to make today's victory worth 2 POINTS! Therefore, Aspen, under the pencil of Turner can pull ahead for VICTORY!

So remember boys and girls you decide the content of what will be drawn today in this thread, and ultimately who will win! WHO WILL IT BE WILDSTORM OR ASPEN!?

UPDATE: Nightcrawler and Harley Quinn starting at 2:30! Stay tuned!

Mario Alba said...

Psylocke vs. Kiani

Zatanna vs. John Constantine

RAY DILLON said...

How about something really UN-COOL that would challenge both of the artist, Uncool Old school and do


AQUAMAN


any version of him too, but hey, maybe an hour wouldn't be enough even for you too.

I'd go for something more out of the artists' repertoire with the Green Lantern Corps.

Horizon Images said...

it would be really cool to see them draw solid snake fighting a metal gear! That would be a true challenge.

Darth Vader vs Superman.

Good luck to Jim Lee and Michael Turner, may the best sketch win.

Wyman said...

Iceman vs Starfire!

David Au said...

Batman vs. Daredevil?

Batman vs. Spiderman?

Fastball Special?

Kingdom Come Superman vs. Dark Knight Returns Batman?

Magneto vs. Doctor Doom?

Vader vs. Darth Maul?

U-GO Girl (X-Force) vs. Nightcrawler?

Colossus and Juggernaut?

Dark Phoenix vs. Darkseid?

David Au said...

Or howbout a true JL/MT fight: Voodoo or Zealot vs. Witchblade or Aspen.

Jon Tsuei said...

To borrow from some of the previous posts, how about Green Lantern vs. Dark Phoenix?

I know these pieces go up for auction by the CBLDF so I tried to come up with something more commercial and could draw in the big bucks for a good cause. Personally I like Kyle Rayner as GL but I think Hal Jordan would be a more popular choice.

Jon Tsuei said...

Oh and in case you guys didnt see the question in the previous thread, any chance this will be recorded and turned into a quicktime movie for us fans that cant seem to get enough?

Barak said...

Doesn't matter if it's commercial enough though. Anything by Turner and Lee would go for a decent price.

Wyman said...

Vampirella vs. Spider-Woman

Barak said...

Apocalypse vs. Archangel

infinite said...

Wolvie vs. Batman

Good luck to Jim and Mike... and may the Norris be with you ^_^

Jon Tsuei said...

Of course the the characters featured in or the subject matter of the piece matters. The piece Jim did at SDCC of Wolverine and Batman was auctioned off for $4000. I highly doubt a Jim Lee piece of Papa Smurf giving Rainbow Bright a smurfberry would bring in the same amount of money.

Running a little late guys! Sorry but it will be happening soon!

Samuel Ellis said...

The world may never know.

antonio said...

I was thinking of Punisher against Spider Man!!
It could be great to see again the Punisher Jim does and the spidey in hands of Turner.

but If the idea is to use DC Characters
Teen Titans!! imagine the image of Turner drawing The Titans!!

Great day to you guys!!!

Samuel Ellis said...

You know, I don't know if they could do a cool aquaman...

Gelatomettista said...

Nightcrawler and Harlequin at 2:30! Stay tuned!

Samuel Ellis said...

Sam's predictions on overall compositions, I could be wrong but here we go.

MR. T's

Foreground Harley
Background Crawley

MR. Lee's

Vice a versa

there will more than likely be bamf action in each, and I wont be surprised if we see a giant mallet in at least one of the pics.

Barak said...

nightcrawler vs. harlequin!!! sweet, cant wait to see it!

Jon Tsuei said...

Awesome, I love Harley!

Barak said...

around hx3:30 I'm assuming?

Line Medic said...

I thought Nightcrawler from Marvel where Jim Lee kinda got his start.
And Tomb Raider from Top Cow where Michael Turner got his start?
Plus... I think there was some-sort of costume presentation of it at Comic-con this year. I didn't see it or go to the con, but read about it from a flyer that didn't have a pic.

With Harlequin I can see the direction of marvel vrs. dc. "Go with it" I can't wait to see the results. Just as long as there's a hot chick and a monster, I'll be happy.

Fochod said...

Only 10 minutes left. I can't wait to see what they came up with.

I guess Newsarama is going to cover it. I just saw that they announced it and they have a little blurb about the updated CBLDF auction.

Mario Alba said...

The Aspen folks have posted this link to a video of Mike Turner finishing the picture:
