The best part of War Of The Gods

Having moved into a new place recently and forced to root through the junk I've amassed over the years looking for things to part with in order to make space, I've rediscovered the posters and pin-ups that adorned the bedroom walls of my fifteen year old self. Overcome with nostalgia for a time just before the explosion of pouch-laden pituitary retards, I thought I'd share.

This selection comes from the 1991 DC miniseries War Of The Gods. These glossy pull-out pin-ups pencilled by Chris Sprouse and inked by George Perez were without a doubt my favourite part of that event, and remain among the best images of these characters.
