Superhero Anydays
This is by the great Ramona Fradon. She's still alive and kicking at 96 years old. The date here is 2018, so she drew this when she was over 90 years old. And, she was a comic book artist, to my memory, in the 70s on the Super Friends. And she was an artist before that. Which was a time when there just were not women comic book artist. I mean, even today, comic book artist is basically a male industry. She's quite an icon.
Back row: Flash, Robin, Batman, Superman (pretty sure it's the Earth-2 version based on the chest symbol)., Plastic Man, Wonder Woman, Hawkman.
Middle row: Dr. Strange (Marvel Universe), Green Lantern, Black Canary (the Earth-2 version due to the mask), Adam Strange, The Shadow (radio character), Mera, Aquaman, Batgirl, Dr. Mid-Nite (Earth-2)
Front row: Metamorpho; don't know who this is exactly, doesn't look like any DC character, could be Iron Man, not sure, but that's who I'm going with (Marvel Universe); don't know who this is either, really, could be Spider-Girl an obscure villain from the Legion or maybe Godiva an obscure British heroine. Since Godiva first appeared in the Super Friends with Fradon drawing it, I'm gonna go with that; Power Girl (Earth-2); Supergirl, Green Arrow (Earth-2 version), Aqualad and Streaky the super-cat.

And today we have a cosplayer doing Quicksilver from the Marvel Movie Universe...and looking pretty much as cute as Aaron Taylor-Johnson who played him in the movies.
