On the heels of the GINORMOUS news of gobsmacking importance that's ROCKING the comics world—the fact that art legend Jim Lee and editorial overlord Dan DiDio will be co-publishers of DC Comics—we here at Complex HQ have chosen to bless you with a gang of glorious images rendered by the dextrous Korean. We would post an homage to the brilliant Dan DiDio too but editing is an unsung but labor-intensive work that will sadly remain unsung for at least another day (sorry Dan!). Peep our exhaustive (and awesome) gallery, as well as a primer on Jim Lee...
For those unfamiliar with Jim Lee's contributions, here's a quick stat rundown of his storied career:
• Graduated from Princeton University with plans to attend medical school in 1986 but deferred to pursue illustration and to presumably break the hearts of his Asian parents.
Now with little regard to chronology or interests in segregating Marvel vs. Image vs. DC (because we love harmony, word to hot ambiguous ethnic chicks!), here's our salute to Jim Lee. Salud!
