Al Plastino Is Smiling From Heaven: DC Acquired JFK Artwork and Will Donate It To JFK Library

DC Entertainment has announced that they have acquired the original Al Plastino artwork for "Superman's Mission For President Kennedy" and will be donating it to the John F. Kennedy Library.

From the DC Comics website:

Al Plastino was one of the most influential and prolific Superman artists of the 1950s and 1960s. His passing last month saddened the entire DCE family. 

One of Plastino's most recognizable pieces was a Superman story he illustrated that featured President John F. Kennedy titled  "Superman’s Mission For President Kennedy." Among Plastino’s final wishes was for the original art for the story to be displayed at the John F. Kennedy Presidential Library and Museum in Boston, MA. 

As a tribute to honor him and preserve his artistic legacy, DC Entertainment is pleased to confirm that we have acquired the art and will be donating it to the JFK Library, fulfilling Plastino's longtime hope for the story, which he often pointed to as one of his most important artistic contributions.

I am glad to see that this is having a happy ending. Al Plastino is smiling down from heaven.

Kudos to DC Entertainment for doing right!
