Because Sometimes You Just Need to See Curt Swan Draw Richard Pryor

That's quite the afro, Richard.

From The Superman Movie Special #1, 1983.

I love Curt Swan and all, but I've always noticed a certain...Steve Dillon quality to his faces. Not all the images of Gus Gorman are quite this...off-model in the book, but there's really only one that looks accurate. Kind of a far cry from, say, Bryan Hitch or the other photorealists of today, where actors often "play" characters in the art.
