January 12, 2008: Jim Lee Helps Hire Online Fan Colorist

Back in August 2007 Jim Lee offered a unique opportunity to one lucky person via his blog. Wildstorm Comics, looking for a new colorist, had Jim Lee post a line-art drawing of Superman by Jack Kirby, and asked potential candidates for the position to submit their colorized version of the image using Photoshop.

The final decision was made earlier this month, with Gabe Eltaeb being selected for the new position. (Gabe's image is shown here). If you click on the link above, you'll be able to see the many differently colored versions of Superman colored by several people who left comments on Jim Lee's blog.

Thanks to 'batmansgirl' for the lead on this story.
