Now it can be revealed. My poster for Eddie Muller’s movie DANGEROUS CITIZEN: The Life and Times of Abraham Polonsky. The movie will premiere at the Locarno Film Festival. I also created the graphics for the film. It’s a brilliant and vitally important movie, especially in these times.
@mwkronenberg.bsky.social selected the biggest upset in heavyweight history as one of his Desert Island Fights. It's still compelling TV after all these years! youtu.be/MlEFwAMa3NQ?...

Yesterday, I bought the beautiful facsimile of BATMAN #251 that DC released. It’s an impeccably produced reprint of one of the greatest Batman stories ever. On the right is my original version from 1973, signed by Neal Adams when I interviewed him in his NYC studio.
The 4th pick from @mwkronenberg.bsky.social for his Desert Island Fights was the first fight between Sugar Ray Leonard vs. Roberto Duran, on June 20, 1980 at the Olympic Stadium in Montreal, Canada. Surely Leonard wouldn't go toe to toe against the Hands of Stone? #boxing

Fight number 2 from @mwkronenberg.bsky.social for his Desert Island Fights was the fight still considered the greatest upset in world heavyweight title history. On Feb 11, 1990, Mike Tyson stepped into the ring for what was considered to be a routine defence against James Buster Douglas... #boxing
The first choice from @mwkronenberg.bsky.social for his Desert Island Fights was the first meeting between Mike Rossman and Victor Galindez for the WBA light heavyweight title, on Sept 15, 1978. On the undercard of Ali v Spinks II with a crowd of 63,350 and a live TV audience of 90 million. #boxing
