SUPERMAN - LAST SON OF MARS fan poster

My love of the movie JOHN CARTER and the DC Elseworlds books inspired this new fan poster. It asks the question "What would happen if Kal-El's rocket had landed on Mars instead of Earth. To create it I used a shot of the latest Man of Steel Henry Cavill, then mixed it together with a shot from my Martian Manhunter wallpaper and a shot of an early concept drawing of the Cloverfield monster to create a white Martian. I then placed all three in the Martian landscape from my WARLORD OF MARS fan poster and added the S shield and a custom logo. For a final touch I recolored the White martian and added the DC/Elseworlds tags.

PLOT:
The story is this, Kal-El grows up on Mars which is a dying world thanks to the war between the Green and White Martians. He is raised by the noble J'onn J'onzz, but he is an outsider on Mars and knows it. As his powers grow Kal finds that he can end the war and possibly save Mars. Things become even more complicated when the first spaceship from Earth arrives on the Red Planet.
