Classic Firestorm by Yildiray Cinar
Previously we’ve seen Yildiray Cinar’s renditions of The New 52 Firestorm, the Elemental Firestorm, and the Brightest Day Firestorm. Now check out this super-cool sketch of the classic Firestorm! Yildiray posted this to Twitter sometime last year. Sorry I’ve lost track of the details, but I believe this was a convention sketch someone commissioned. Great […]
Custom Mego Firestorm Action Figure Box
I don’t know much about this custom Mego action figure box, other than it’s AWESOME! It was posted by “The Toyroom” on the Mego Museum forum. The artwork was taken from Tom Fleming’s painting. What a clever and gorgeous custom piece! Click the image to enlarge. My thanks to Rob Kelly from The Aquaman Shrine, […]
Darryl Banks Firestorm drawings
I’m a HUGE fan of the Kyle Rayner era of Green Lantern, and artist Darryl Banks is synonymous with those issues. Darryl draws everything great! He recently posted this Firestorm/Killer Frost artwork on Facebook. The drawing was done in 2010 and the incredibly-detailed background represents Coney Island. Such amazing work! The detail on each character and […]
Putting Out the Flame of Firestorm
Who can put out the flame of Firestorm? Killer Frost, that’s who! Check out this page from Killer Frost’s first appearance, Firestorm #3 (May 1978), by Gerry Conway, Al Milgrom, and Bob Mcleod. Take a close look at the middle panels. Once Firestorm freezes up, you can see Ronnie’s hair! I could be wrong, but […]
Super Heroes Have Issues Too t-shirt
Fellow match-head Patrick Wait recently spotted this humorous t-shirt at Kohl’s. You can also order it from My Tee Spot. It’s hard to make out the design from the image above, so I found this other image online. Apparently they don’t make the white version anymore, but the design is essentially the same as the […]
Firestorm in Captain Atom #2 (April 1987)
Our good buddy Frank from the Power of the Atom blog was kind enough to send us today’s scans! These come from Captain Atom #2 (April 1987) and were penciled by legendary Firestorm artist Pat Broderick! Story by Cary Bates and inks by Bob Smith. The two pages below served as bookends for the main […]
Jenette Kahn talks about Firestorm’s creation
Today we’re piloting the Wayback Machine to November 21, 1977, exactly two weeks before the first appearance of our favorite Nuclear Man in Firestorm #1. On this fortnight before Firestorm’s debut, Teen Titans #53 hit the stands. This particular issue is probably best known for featuring the end of the original Teen Titans. However, also worth […]
Unusual Suspects: Darkseid versus Firestorm
When you think of Firestorm foes, characters that typically come to mind include: Killer Frost, Multiplex, Hyena, Typhoon, Plastique, Deathstorm, or maybe even Slipknot. However, in Firestorm’s 34 years he’s faced quite a few other foes. Today we’re starting a new semi-regular feature looking at some of Firestorm’s more unusual opponents. Welcome to the first […]
Fan Art by Thuddleston and AlexMax
Today we’re looking at some fan-created art of Firestorm and Killer Frost! First up we have Firestorm by Terry Huddleston (Thuddleston on deviantART). Terry drew this Firestorm back in 2008. While I like this Firestorm, I’m even more impressed with his recent work. Terry has been doing a series of fantastic head-shots and full-body poses […]
