Hello, I'm Marco Bucci and I'm addicted to Batman

I've been very recently inspired by the graphic novel called 'Arkham Asylum', illustrated by Dave McKean. Apart from his art being a breath of fresh air to me, I loved the way he dealt with showing Batman; he exists only in sketches and silhouettes...almost phantom-like. This painting is a small tribute to that concept.

There's nothing wrong with a little Batman obsession--as long as you balance it out with a little Catwoman (or something)!

Happy new year~
