Superman #1 was released in 1939. Batman #1 was released in 1940. The 1940's grade of paper and the printers they where printed on and the ink .Well lets just say there where more limits then possibilities .

The 2016 $100 dollar scanners that can scan any thing to day. In 1985 you could pay $1000's for a commercial grade photo .Or take the photo your self It would be a bit warp from the angle and some glare. never good enough.

In the 80's give or take decades .DC,Marvel,etc etc hade 4 to make the comic. penciler ,colorer ,inker the art, writer ink in the words.

DC,Marvel,etc etc ink in black ,does not help girls look pretty ,makes Batman look scarier thou.

This is the style every one thinks of when they think comics.

grimm fairy tales "google" tend not to ink there girls with black ink.

It's 2016 we have unlimited options now.I would advise against mix media look thou.

Since your not a skilled Artist .I'd advise renders and find some 2D filters you like. PS has endless filters n there's topaz labs "google".

I've been a Artist for Decades ,never drew in a straight line ;)
