It looks like a 12 year old traced over the real image. It has 3 bids--regardless of the fact it's only at 13.00. I mean, if you're a fan who's familiar with Timm's art and want to own some of his art, wouldn't you be able to IDENTIFY his art from this chicken scratch?

This reminds me of a month ago about an artist named Robert Granito selling artwork that he produced. He turned out to be a fraud and banned from comic convention for the foreseeable future. Look him up on youtube. He took his site and deviantart page down.
