Detail from- "Batalla en la Esquina de Ditko y Kirby"
Black Cat Bones Gallery in Puebla, Mexico has commissioned this print from Tim Doyle as part of their Superhero art show. He had previously created the sold-out ‘En Los Arboles’ print for their Twin Peaks tribute.
If anyone knows Doyle, they know He loves him some super-heroes. So when the opportunity came up for him to participate, he took the hidden pole down to his secret lair and banged this out (now, that just sounds dirty).
“Batalla en la Esquina de Ditko y Kirby” is a 13×24 4 color silkscreen print in a tiny edition of 90, and we will only have 70 for sale!
There is also a Glow in the Dark edition in a smaller run of 20.
The glow version was printed w/ a 5th layer of a transparent glow undercoat, so the whole print glows! Neat!
These prints will be on sale EARLY Monday morning on Nakatomi, in the Tim Doyle section of the store.
They’ll retail at $30 and $50 for the glow. These were hand-printed by Clint Wilson in our Nakatomi Print Labs.
Anyone who knows him, knows HOW IMPORTANT this print is to Doyle personally!
Detail shot!
If you want, there’s a CRAZY big image of this in our Flickr HERE. Just click the ‘original size’ button, and wait for a SLOW LOAD.
Okay, Monday morning, like 4am CST, this’ll go up. Either stay up late, or get up early-Doyle’s last print had a larger run and sold out in 24 hours. Good luck!
