    I liked Biskup lots better when he was copying Jim Flora than when he is imitating a computer.

    lol. I spent ages staring at Vader thinking Astroboy was hidden in there somehow.
    Then I scrolled down…

    No copyright battles? The “you” that he doesn’t hate must be his lawyer.

    Imitating a computer? Biskup gets better every year, and he as more soul in his work than almost any other artist out there. Snarky narrow-minded posts make me sad.

    Astroboy looks great, my living room wall is killing for some art like this!
