Richard Ortiz Lady Death: The Wicked #1/2 Cover Original Art (Avatar Press, 2005). "For the glory of Hell, I am Lady Death!" The infernal queen hoists the Deathbringer in a fierce, transformation-ready stance that might spark a few She-Ra flashbacks. Richard Ortiz delivers a perfect showcase of the Art Nouveau elegance he's known for, from the flowing, ribbon-like sweep of her hair to the crackling electricity that curls through the composition like ornamental filigree. Ink and white paint over graphite on Bristol board with an image area of 10.5" x 16". Production label in lower margin and whiteout touch-ups. Signed by Ortiz in the lower right image area and in Excellent condition.
