1975 Albert Bigley BATMAN vs Thugs Original Art! DC Comics! BANGG!

Yet another ultra-violent drawing of Batman taking on desperate, but doomed, thugs. Surely copied (by me, age 10) from the incredible art of Irv Novick, one of the BATMAN artistic masters of the 70s, this scene features guns, rifles, broken booze bottles, and a well-placed Batarang, as well as a crook (who looks like a "Life-Like Beard" GI Joe) holding his gun "thug style," 20 years before it came into fashion!

1976 SUPERMAN vs SPIDER-MAN Art by Albert Bigley! DC! Marvel!?

My attempt (age 11) at re-creating the incredible cover art (by Ross Andru, Dick Giordano, and Neal Adams) of the ground-breaking 1976 oversized spectacular that was SUPERMAN VS THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN! How'd I do?

Yeah.

1974 Albert Bigley CAPTAIN AMERICA Cover Art! Banshee Attacks!

Once again, as part of my young mania to re-create covers of the day that captured my imagination, here is my attempt, at age 9, to simulate the fantastic cover (by Gil Kane) to CAPTAIN AMERICA 172!

Looks like I had no time for backgrounds. The Falcon image alone is worth a look. Click to enlarge!

Flintstones! Meet The Flintstones...Sorta. Albert Bigley 1974 Art!

Just so you don't  think all I ever drew as a lad were the mighty superheroes, here is a huge (around 11 by 17) poster I drew (in ink!) of Hanna/Barbera's cartoon star, good ol' Fred Flintstone. I used to devour the afternoon 70s reruns of the show, so...

Sigh. I guess those vignettes depict Freddie bowling, as a superhero, at the famed "Buffalo Convention (I think I meant "Water Buffalo lodge")," and in drag as somebody named "Mrs. Rockhead!?" Click to enlarge.

Superman vs The Flash! Albert Bigley 1976 Art! DC Comics!?

I loved the fast-motion art of comics legend Carmine Infantino, and here is my attempt (at age 11) to re-create those fabulous drawings. Here we see Superman zooming in for a frantic confrontation with the Flash! Sure, "Super-man" looks more like Bizzarro, but what do ya want?  Also note the fickle crowds in the background!

1973 Albert Bigley Spider-Man vs the Green Goblin Art! ZIPPP!!

Here is a wonderful and large illustration of the ever-amazing Spider-Man "zippp-ing" it to his arch foe, the nefarious Green Goblin! Drawn by me in the 3rd grade, and still in my "midget Spidey" mode, what's not to love? Gotta admire Spidey's pumpkin head, and Gobby's lovable mug!

Like most artists of that tender age, I was far more obsessed with details, like the costuming, than the overall composition, or things like anatomy. LOVE Goblin's initials on his bag o' tricks! That's not something you'd wanna lose. Click to enlarge!

Al Bigley STAR TREK Art! Spock! Kirk! Shatner!

Right offa eBay, here is a 90s STAR TREK commission I did for a fan! Not TOO bad for a quick sketch of the ol' Shat (and his trusty hairpiece) and Leonard Nimoy! Click to enlarge and engage!
