Someone wrote in scans_daily,

References
Can anyone help me to spot the superhero references Lipatov uses? His Lenin looks like the Druid (member of the Avengers in the 80s), and the panel with Hitler in Hell is clearly taken from P. Craig Russell's "Elric of Melnibone: The Dreaming City" graphic novel. Individual panels/poses/compositions remind me of Sal Buscema, John Buscema, various 80s/90s styles. I have spoken briefly with Lipatov (didn't get to ask him), and I have an essay in which I discuss this story coming out in the next International Journal of Comic Art, but I'd like to spot more of the visual allusions.
