My avatar

[The Game]

I was just wondering...

I downloaded the pic my avatar came from off of Morpheus (a file-sharing Napster clone) and thanks to Bird_Boy (thanks again man) I got it made to the 75 X 75 pixels for the avatar, but...

Where did the pic come from originally? It looks like a live action Joker, and Harley... I'm just curious if anyone might know its origins.

It's a painting by Alex Ross. Here is a link to the page on his website where it is displayed among others: http://www.alexrossart.com/archives/batmn.htm

It was used on the Harley graphic novel that preceeded the regular series, too.

The comic, called Batman: Harley Quinn, was released in the summer of 1999 during the NO MAN LAND arc. It introduced her to the mainstream Batman continuity and gave her an origin much like the animated counter-part.

I was just thinking of that recently. I was confused by "thegame's" avatar too but I figured it was from a comic since a lot of covers really have that "real" touch to them. I was reminded of it after looking at a Spidey comic cover with Green Goblin recently. How DO they do that? The look is just plain awesome.

I believe Alex Ross actually uses live modles. How else could they render a human form with such realism?
