Dick Giordano’s Demolition Man 3
Dick Giordano is a legend. During his fifty plus years in the biz he’s done everything from ink all the greats (including himself) to serve as Editor-in-Chief of DC Comics, to co-founding his own comic company. Mr. Giordano also has a great sense of humor.
I recently had the good fortune to pick up six model sheet headsketches of Sly that Mr. Giodano did before starting work on DC Comics adaptation of “Demolition Man.” That’s the third posted above.

Sly’s Award, Not Rambo’s
On September 12, 2009, the DailyMail.uk posted some photos of Sly at the Venice Film Festival in a piece titled: Sly Stallone Raises Eyebrows… The piece says that although Sly wanted to look his best since he was the first American to receive the Jaeger-Lecoultre Glory To The Filmmaker award, perhaps he went about overboard.
Take a look at the photos and the piece and you can judge for yourself. Sounds to me, like the author of the piece wanted to see Rambo, but got Sly instead.
