Anyone remember a piece of art put out near the end of CoH's run that involved a heroine with a Star on her chest either flying INTO or OUT OF flames? I believe (memory may fail me here) that David Nakayama did the piece, and while he flat out stated that there were no plans that he was aware of to save CoH, he did the piece with City in mind. I think it would be a wonderful piece to use for the City of Titans birth, but damned if I can find the piece.
If anyone has a link to the piece in question (if its even remembered) could they post it here? I'd be eternally grateful. Would love to see that art piece used here, with legal obligations understood, of course.
UPDATE:
Nvm, found a link for it. should be able to view it here:

I think it has such an epic feel, and also a bit of back history linking it to our favorite game. If the legal hurdles are too high to stride, then I understand, but I'd love to see this used somewhere and somehow.

No worries Grayfigure. David is a very nice guy, I'm sure if he were asked and was legally able he would allow the Devs to use his picture.

Hey Titans, Cap here. Thought I would do you a solid.
From David Nakayama AKA Noble Savage, via Facebook:
"[i]Hey, man. As a matter of fact, I made this piece and the character itself available to both legacy projects a few months back. MWM actually declined the offer in a kind of formal way, with a long letter from their then-Art Director.[/i]
[i]Very open to it though. If they want it, all they have to do is ask. :) [/i]"
Fly free!

Thanks Captain! David is awesome. He put up with me showing off my art work and gave me some pointers a few San Diego comic cons ago. Say hello, and I hope that his career is doing well. :D
I agree about David being awesome, and THANK YOU cap, for that! Well, we know it's been considered, so that sates my curiosity. I'd love it if it did happen, but I understand that some tough decisions have to be made in these things.
