Superman (1978) – Someone to Believe In Fine Art Print by Kristopher Meadows

“I’m here to fight for truth, and justice, and the American way.” – Superman

In this stunning, heartfelt tribute to the Man of Steel, oil-painter Kristopher Meadows expertly captures the likeness of Christopher Reeve as Superman, rising up into the sky as an inspirational symbol of hope, liberty, and justice. Striking a pose reminiscent of the Statue of Liberty, the hero is set against a romanticized backdrop of the American flag, which features just three sets of stripes and four stars in special honor of the actor, who was 34 years old the last time he donned the famous tights, in Superman IV: The Quest for Peace. 

The original painting has long garnered special recognition and praise among the Superman fan community, as well as with Reeve himself, who acknowledged Someone To Believe In as a personal favorite fan tribute to his portrayal of the Man of Steel and kept a replica of the original painting proudly hung behind the desk in his home office.

Illustrated by artist Kristopher Meadows, the vibrant piece is limited to 500 prints. Add it to your DC Comics collection today before it’s gone.

About the Artist:

Kristopher Meadows began his career at the age of three by copying cover illustrations and interior panels from his favorite DC and Marvel comic book titles. He turned his attention to portraiture at the age of thirteen and quickly developed the skill to “see” and realize a drawing that captured the “spirit and soul” of his subject.
Influenced by great portrait painters such as John Singer Sargent, Anders Zorn and Joaquin Sorolla, Meadows employs a painting technique known as alla prima, Italian for “at the first”. The idea is to capture the essence of the subject in a bold, intuitive way, using vigorous, expressive brushstrokes and minimal color mixing on the palette.
