The artist who does these...
… emailed me a few months ago; I posted the link but can’t find it right now. He also sent me one of the posters. It is indeed really cool.

Where's dragon?
He still post here ever?

His posts diminished in proportion to Dome's batting average.
I hope he comes back. Actually, I hope they both come back.

Were there ever any jokes
about Dome’s spinning strikeouts actually drilling him through the ground and into Japan? Seems really obvious but I don’t recall any.

Yeah, I don't recollect any of those either...
…but I’m sure they’re out there (even though everybody knows if you dig a deep enough hole in the ground you end up in China, not Japan).

I was wondering that too
So I clicked on his name attached to a related fanpost on the right bar (from 5 months ago…the SB notion of related content makes no sense to me) Anyway, he has been posting on the Talking Chop site (SB nation Braves site) recently.

I believe the "related content"...
… comes from matching tags (or “Read Related” items). That can lead to weird stuff when another site puts a matching tag on a post that’s not similar at all to one I make here.

Those are really cool.
Would like other Cub options. I especially like the individuals Yaz, Rice, etc. and would buy a screen print of some Cub legends.
The artist is from Massachusetts and a Red Sox fan.
But I bet if you emailed him and asked, he might consider doing some posters as you suggest. (Santo, Banks, Williams, etc.)

Does he sell these posters?
If not, a person could use Illustrator to Live Trace or hand trace (depending on skill level) a drawing like this and print it yourself (or rasterbate it).
