Where Have All the DC Fans Gone?
After a string of bombs and with a reboot on the horizon, Warner Bros. has to do more than make fans believe a man can fly. It has to make them believe that this time, there's a willingness to see that flight to its destination.

New Wheatley Kickstarter goals
NEW STRETCH GOALS
A new signed print and larger, more amazing prints! These new goals are directly based on some great feedback I got yesterday (a number of backers contacted me via messages, eMail and responding to my last update.) This makes me happy. I like to give you what you want! And, since these larger prints will be shipped separately from the NUCLEUS box, they will be shipped rolled to keep them flat and safe. Also, I am now planning on adding a few more possible "add-ons" to the campaign. I'm going to offer 12" x 18" signed prints of several of my popular paintings. I'll post those as soon as I have the chance to design the graphics for the campaign page. Stay Tooned!
And never forget that the most important thing you can do is:
