So if you are a LEGO-Maniac and have some Iron Man love, head over to the site for the complete rules, prizes, and all that other…

I really like sketchbooks, I especially like sketchbooks with themes.  The Hero Initiative has its own sketchbook coming out soon with 3-minutes being the theme.

The results are often stunning and surprising. Now, The Hero Initiative has collected Michael’s sketches into this great art book, featuring contributions from Neal Adams, Steve McNiven, George Pérez, John Romita Sr. and Jr., Walter Simonson, Michael Turner and MORE! If you…
