As comics artists continue to lend their talents for coronavirus (COVID-19) charity relief efforts, Venom artist Ryan Stegman has decided to knight Spider-Man in a drawing for a school fundraiser.
Stegman revealed he did the sketch for a charity fundraiser at his brother-in-law's school. "Spider-man...as a KNIGHT!" he wrote on Twitter. "For a fundraiser at my brother-in-law’s school." The message was followed by an image of the web-slinger.
In the charity drawing, Stegman cast Spider-Man as a medieval knight in a full suit of metal armor. The armor is placed over his usual Spider-Man costume as parts of it peek through the metal. The biggest peek comes as his mask is visible through the raised visor on the helmet. Despite being in heavy armor, the web-slinger manages to swing with ease through the air as his webs aide him.
Stegman has not been the only artist to use his talents for charity purposes. DC Chief Creative Officer Jim Lee has been auctioning off his sketches as well as other artists' works on eBay to benefit the BINC Foundation. Mike Mignola, Eric Powell and Rob Liefeld have done the same for the comics industry. Like Stegman, Lee recently did a Batman sketch for a church's COVID-19 relief efforts.
