20th Anniversary Watchmen tribute: Crimebusters

Art by  Giuseppe Palumbo.
In 2006 I edited Watchmen 20 anni dopo, an Italian tribute book to Watchmen in the occasion of its 20th anniversary. The volume was published by Lavieri with all net profits donated to AIMA, the Italian Alzheimer organization. 
Basically a collection of 12 essays, the book also contained a 24 illustration gallery: above you can admire a fantastic illustration featuring the Crimebusters drawn by the extraordinary Italian author GIUSEPPE PALUMBO.
The illustration was originally published in black and white lineart: here you can see the version colored by Palumbo himself.

Giuseppe Palumbo is one of the most acclaimed Italian comic book artists and writers.
