FRED HEMBECK Does Another Batman Comic Book Cover Recreation

Fred Hembeck is one of our National Treasures! Lately he's been selling his artwork on eBay ( Just search for "Hembeck" ). Here's an example of one of his Classic Comic Book Re-Creations. On the right is the original cover to Detective Comics #398. On the left is his cartoon version...Pure Art!

The Batman on the original looks pissed off. Hembeck's Batman looks scared!

Ozz, it's subtle changes like that which make Fred's art as much commentary as re-creations. Either that or he just got the expression wrong.:)
