Hulk vs Superman pen & ink commission from 2018 by Steve

A friend who just read my 1993 graphic novel SPEEDING BULLETS asked me if I did any other Elseworlds stories. Answer: I tried. Soon after SB, I pitched DC a sequel, a kind of reverse version, where young Bruce Wayne was kidnapped by an alien probe, raised on Krypton by a cold and ruthless Jor-El, and became a revolutionary Superman who brought down the Kryptonian power structure. For reasons I never understood, DC passed on it.

Around the same time I pitched another one where baby Kal-El’s rocket was found by white supremacists and Clark Kent was raised to become, essentially, a Super Klansman. (The idea was to push the character as far from “truth, justice and the American way” as possible—and watch him fight his way back to his fundamental core of decency. By the end of the story Clark rejected hate, took down the supremacists, and became the Superman we know and love.) Another pass from DC—I think it was a little too hot for them to handle—and so ended my Elseworlds experience.

But I like to think that somewhere, in some parallel universe, both stories exist.

(Update: Someone just reminded me that, in 2001, I did another Elseworlds called SUPERGIRL: WINGS. Totally slipped my mind!)
