Before the multiverse, before the billion-dollar blockbusters — there were legends. This one-of-a-kind poster pays tribute to the gritty, glorious icons of pulp and early comic cinema. Featuring a dream lineup of classic vigilantes and cult-favorite heroes — The Phantom, Dick Tracy, The Shadow, Darkman, The Rocketeer, The Crow, RoboCop, and The Spirit — this piece oozes retro badassery and cinematic nostalgia.

Rendered in rich, cinematic detail, this print is a time capsule for fans who grew up on trench coats, purple suits, jetpacks, and revenge missions in the rain. It’s a must-have for collectors, pop culture junkies, and old-school action fans.
