Christmas with the Super-Heroes No. 2 Cover by DeStefano & Mahlstedt
I highly recommend this cover if you wish to discover how tedious it is to colour little elves and their multi-coloured costumes. Though with the lantern light to play off of the scene it did turn out to be magical.
Stephen DeStefano was the artist on ‘Mazing Man, a wonderful series that just didn’t find a large audience during its run. This cover pencilled by him (from a sketch by Ty Templeton) shows the whimsy he was able to bring to his drawing. And nicely finished by Larry Mahlstedt, an inker who was paired with Keith Giffen during their run on The Legion of Super-Heroes.
