These are a great bunch of Golden Age characters. I'm really digging James Shield's style.

He's put out some really good stock art, some of which I hope to use down the road.

A collage of 3 new images I got from Brian Brinlee. They are 3 deities who make up a group that are modeled on the four horsemen of the apocalypse.

The three in this image are Aray (War), an Armenian God, Lamashtu (Pestilence), a Mesopotamian Demon/Goddess, and Bres (Famine), a Celtic God/Fomorian

Those Cataclysmus and Swarm characters look great, but that Swarm fighter is AMAZING!

Yeah, he is really knocking these out of the park. Speaking of which, here is the main warship used by the Cataclysm Swarm, the War Hive...

I hope my writing does these images justice

Here's a new one. These are from a race called the Thal. They are descended from Neanderthals taken off Earth by a now dead alien race. They developed their own culture and technology, and have slowly been expanding out of their own solar system. A female Thal was empowered by The Watchlight (a power source similar to the power batteries of the Green Lanterns), which has brought this race into the spotlight:

What a great name riff for these semi-aliens. I hope that these space cousins of ours aren't to miffed about what happened to their ancestors her on Earth?

He based the image off the cover of Exciting Comics the character is featured on Image.

While it looks similar to Luthor, it's amusing to note that Luthor originally had a full head of hair, and the first time he appeared bald was because of an artist mistake.

Edit: I hope this didn't come off as snarky. I thought that since the resemblance was there, I'd post some history/trivia about Luthor many might know about
