Just saw this post by @fleetsparrow about this art and how it's "Sistine Chapel coded"
And I'm here to tell you YOU'RE ABSOLUTELY RIGHT AND I'M HERE TO INTRODUCE YOU TO A VERY SPECIFIC ARTISTIC INTEREST OF MINE:
ST. MICHAEL ARCHANGEL AND LUCIFER. THEY'RE ST. MICHAEL ARCHANGEL AND LUCIFER AND SLADE IS MICHAEL WHILE DICK IS LUCIFER BASED ON THEIR POSES!!! I'M!!!!
When I saw that art I IMMEDIATELY clocked in because that's such a specific pose and artists have used it for centuries but to see the "bad guy" take the part of the angel in this portrayal is SENDING ME.
I rest my case have a good night *dies*
