The level of detail on this is utterly astounding! I love all the details on the building and in the street!

Thank you, Daniel. I am a huge fan of Young Justice and it is a shame that they cancelled the series after season 2. It is interesting that you mention Gotham/Chicago, because there's one famous building in Chicago that was an important inspiration for my version of Arkham Asylum.

An absolute awesome build. Love the Young Justice addition and the building is just.... stunning. I always saw Gotham as more of Chicago and Metropolis similarly to how you visioned it as Miami or San Diego or similar. But again, stunning!

That is amazing I myself like making lego art but don't have a lot of lego to use. Like how everything is set out.

I am truly amazed.....

Masterpiece,what else can I say... I like the DAILY PLANET design and that curved glass at the back of the nice planet.

I am glad that you gave Superboy heat vision because he does get full kryptonian powers in the episode called Agendas they were given to him by Lex Luthor via patches that Lex calls Shields. Brilliant

Just an amazing build. I like it shows a few different scenes in one single MOC.

(Faint)aaaammmaaaaazzzziiinnnggg

Congratulations, this is a well deserved MOCie winner. Now that I'm looking at it with some more time I realize how many details you've added. Design and building techniques are great and the details are awesome. The phone booth is my favourite detail (so "simple" and so effective!). Great job! Und noch einmal meinen herzlichen Glückwunsch! :-))

Congrats, Chief!

I now realize how amazing I must plan my creations. This creation brought me tears to my eyes. In any competition, with this, you're sure to win. Surely just about the greatest creation EVER. EPIC!!!!! WOW!!!!!

Superb work! The detail hurts my eyeballs :P

Hahaha, strange place to ask questions about the contest, but okay. Yes, you can add more pictures until the judging begins.

So I can edit my photos after posting?

I'm glad if I can help, but you must be more specific.

Wow wow wow, im amazed can you give me some advice

Wow. So clean and awesome. Both the big globe and the mini globes are also really cool. And everything else. Too much detail to comment on. @ J Cooper: How about you look at the rest of the MOC before you talk about a minor inaccuracy?

He is smiling, because his heat-vision, which he unexpectedly discovered right now, tickles his eyes.

Thank you. I'm absolutely sure I'll build more Marvel MOCs, but I can't say, when exactly I'll do that.

I love your DC model are you going to do another Marvel themed one?

Two flaws: 1, Super-Boy does not have heat-vision except with his patches witch you built this before they existed in the show. Two, he usually DOESN'T smile, especially in a battle.

wow!!!

Wow...This is superb!!

Yes. I agree with Ru. It's both well done and thematically consistent. Very impressive. -Ben

Wow, 300th like... hopefully many, many more to come. I think you've done a brilliant job here. Keep up the great work!

Nice!

amazing piece! a dream moc! incredible! lego would sell even more kits with this piece as background on their boxes s covers! superb! bravo mr xeno!

Absolutely incredible. The attention to detail is top-notch. There's so much that I like, here are a few items: the water flowing out of the tower - perfect; the robots - amazing; the planet and the letters in the front of the building over the curved wall - mind-boggling, (how did he do that?) The devastated office may be my favorite part. The desk is well done, and are those degrees in frames on his wall? Are you kidding me with that? Anyway, this is easily among my favorite MOCs I've seen on this site. Great piece of work.

Wow Im sorry I missed this work of ART!!! Amazing my friend. The amount of work that must have gone into this is surpassing. I really love your sketches as well before you started, I wish more Lego lovers would put there Sketches in before hand to get a feel of how much thinking went into these creations. Keep it up bud always looking forward to your next build. Later...

Amazing! That's the best detail I've ever seen! I'd be honored if you'd check out my page (unless you're too busy on the next stunning model).

GREAT!!!!! could u add me as a favorite it would mean a LOT to me!!!!!http://www.mocpages.com/home.php/83271 this is the link to my home page!!!

GREAT!!!!! could u add me as a favorite it would mean a LOT to me!!!!!http://www.mocpages.com/home.php/83271 this is the link to my home page!!!

seriously you are crazy-but in a really good way i mean this is...just fantastic

Xeno this is absolutely stunning. It has all been said below but I will add my thoughts too. The Art Deco feel of the building is fantastic, all of the characters are fantastic, your sketches are fantastic and the details are urm… …fantastic. Yep that’s the Fantastic 4 ;)

Thank you, Alexander, but I think, this MOC is far too big for a set. Also, I try to 'advertise' Doctor Who on cuusoo already.

If you have not you could put it on lego cuusoo

Thank you, Noah. I design and print the decals myself.

That's EXTRAORDINARY! By far the best DC comics themed MOC on MOCpages! Where (or how) do you get those amazing decals?

Fantastic. How you did the daily "planet" and the whole of the balcony is brilliant. You keep inspiring me. Oh, fun to se what you look like IRL also. Kind of what i expected tbh. LOL

THIS IS THE BEST LEGO CREATION I HAVE EVER SEEN. YOU WOULD GIVE LEGO A RUN FOR THERE MONEY.

I love this so much! It's a beautiful Daily Planet building, the detail is wonderful. Superman is my favourite super hero and you've made it look amazing in lego.

LOVE IT!!!!!

WOAH. This thing should be on display in Legoland!!!!!

Thanks, man. Words like these coming from you means a lot to me.

I've been here multiple times, studying your brickwork and window designs, and always find a new detail to love. This time it's the abfalleimer in the office with a tiny bit of abfall in it; you really leave nothing out!~H edit: Had to change a word(s) to avoid moderation, hence no smiley. =( It's frustrating some of the words that won't clear the filter...

I can't believe I forgot to comment on this, when I saw an early picture (in our "privileged" group :P I was alredy astonished, you simply multiplied a 100% perfection into another dimension, even if there was the slightiest minor point it would have been totally invisible as so many other incredible details would draw attention away from it. (I love it) ;p

That's AWESOME!

Very nice! Great details, great little story! My favorite part is ehhhh, the whole thing!

That planet looks great, as does the rest of the MOC! Great job!

This is just incredibly amazing! I can get lost in all the details for DAYS! Excellent job Xeno!

...WOW!

Simply amazing! And you look like a villain... hehe. :D

Wow, my man, wow. This is truly a shining masterpiece. I wish I could see it in person!

1 word..... EPIC!!!!!

Masterpiece! And seeing your sketches was a lovely bonus! Also, could have sworn you already were on my favs list :)

Absolutely amazing! One of my favorite mocs ever!

I love the stuff you create its amazing(im on the time lord group lets have a contest

My favorite part is the water spraying out of the tank on the top of the building. Incredibly done all the way around!

Never say never. I like medieval stuff in general, but I need the right inspiration/motivation. Maybe the Hobbit movies will help ...

Looking at this for the second time, I got to thinking: Your obvious architectural skill would pair wonderfully with castle-making! I can only imagine the incredible castles that you could make. Is there a possibility that you might make one?

I didn't think ANYTHING could be more popular than the Tardis...

Thank you. It's roundabout 15000 bricks.

HOLY CRAP!!!!! That thing is amazing. How many bricks did it take to do that.

Freaking Awesome!

WOW, somewhat amazing what you did here! Long time since I'd seen a thing like this, original, well made and appealing at the same time... KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!

This is the greatest thing I've seen in a LONG time. The building is extraordinary, the detail outside is nothing short of fantastic, and the robots are incredible. This is just like the comics. I can't wait to nominate this for a MOCie!

Incredible, fantastic work :)

Fantastic! I like every little detail here. I also think the planet looks better where you put it. I don't think i've ever seen so much darktan! Are you going to be showing this off anywhere?

Amazing!

Wow. Unbelievable. The building looks really cool. Love the curved windows on the inside and the Daily Planet words done with bricks. And love the planet. Great work!

Fantastic work! I love that massive planet! Wonderful road work, and stuff! It's totally great! I would not have the patience to do that in 8 weeks. :P :-)

WOW!

Wonderful parts usage and creative designs! There are so many wonderful details that make this such an excellent moc! Great job!

Thanks, Rob. You can see it in the making-of-pics. I tried bending the bricks first, but the porch became too huge for the building, so I used lots and lots of hinges instead.

Amazing buildings!

WOW!!! There's no way I could ever build something as AWESOME as this;D Your for sure one of my favorite builders now.....the detail in this is amazing and to top it off it's so big!!!! Well anyway great job, 5/5:p

Haha, you really are a super checker, but you are right. Nevertheless, have a look at the Superman animated series. Many of the designs, especially robot designs in general, look like ones from the 40s.

Awesome..!

This is a work of art. If I could give more than 5 stars, I would! I have on question - how do you make the curved walls for the Daily Planet building? Do you bend the Lego bricks or do you use lots of hinges? I've seen this technique before but could never quite figure out how you guys do it! Looks really cool though.

Just awesome!!

WOW, simply breath taking.

Fantastic build.

Wow!

Great Job!!. The colors and detail are amazing, and it was a good idea to put the diary in!

That is just amazing! What a huge building that is! And the amount of detail you've put in is spectacular, even to the finest, finest detail! Fantastic!

This is amazing! I'm astounded at your abilities.

Amazing!

what can i say, so.....cool!!!

WOW, this is extremely good, especialy when you think at, it only took you 1 hour and 9 min to do it in XD. there is so much action going on, that you barely can observe it all at once, very very well done, great job keep it up, (i like your little story telling hehe, makes it all even more superhero'ish)

Thank you, SuperSpy, and well spotted. I put him in for size comparison. He is a dummy for one of my next MOCs, the superhero Anole.

Thank you. I made them with custom stickers.

Here's me having seen this a while back and patting your back in the lounge and completely forgetting to post a comment here. So here it is mate. Awesome, and that's a too-often used statement that I very rarely use for it's true use, when something inspires awe. Keep up the stellar work.

Thank you. The answer is 'yes', though I'm not sure about the size at the moment.

I think this creation solidifies you as a superhero yourself! Nothing short of stunning!

This is the best comment on mocpages.

What is that rock monster/Darth Maul/police man next to the half-built tree?!? Did anyone else see that? Anyway, just fantastic model, I wish I could give it 10/5 but I can't.

awesome! where did you get the superheros from?

This is probably your best creation since your TARDIS, huge size+huge building skills(and a liking of superman)make things like this!

You said you "tried to stay true to the typical 1930s-1940s comic design" for the Brainiac robots, which must have been difficult since the character wasn't created until 1958.

On his 30th birthday, a Roman Soldier found Ceaser crying and asked him why, said Ceaser that he was depressed that by his age, his Greek counterpart Alexander the Great had already conquered the world. I feel like that Roman soldier, hahaha, mate you are a freak at this! The details are just stunning and fun, yes fun to look at. Brilliant!

There is GOOD, then there is BETTER and finally there's the B E S T! Xeno this was the best design I have seen here on MOCpages! and your step by step presentation is what makes it stand out! You took us from sketch to how each detail was done! and then - - - "LIGHTS! CAMERA! ACTION! A round of applause goes out to you! And a HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

Absolutely stunning piece of work! I particularly like the WIP shots and sketch plans, I wish more people would post these. All the best for the competion. Do you have another superhero MOC planned? I would love to see you take a Marvel MOC to this level!

Ha, that's for cursing so much. But reading your comment reminds me of something I've almost forgotten. I ... um ... borrowed your amazing wall-technique from your playground MOC for my chimneys. I'll add some more pics soon and one of them will show it in detail.

Thank you, Victor, for blogging me. The article is nice.

12 studs

Thank you, Kyle. I'm afraid that I'll tear it down soon, so no conventions. But I'll put some additional shots here on the pages.

Thank you. I'm still using self adhesive paper, but in the near future I want to try waterslide decal paper.

Looks like my first comment is stuck in moderation. So I leave out the strong words. This is one heck of a MOC. I hope to once become half the builder you already are. Even if that means to also become half as crazy. Just kidding, keep it up with that pace and we can expect even more greatness in the future.

Awe inspiring work

Very very very cool. My boys are amazed at your work. It is inspiring to see the day by day shots. Makes it doable. Please post more of your creations. Thanks so much for sharing.

It's a bird... It's a plane... No, it's an AMAZINGLY detailed Superman scene! This here is a work of art that you have made. I think everyone else who commented has pretty much summed it all up; you really outdid yourself with awesomeness :D I really like how you showed the entire process from the sketches to the final product. I wish more people would start doing that because it provides a fun behind the scenes look and can inspire other builders. Congrats!!!

Fantastic work! I absolutely love all the little details.

Just wow! Brilliant details

WOW, this is realy cool! There are so many details!

Dear Mr. Xenomurphy: I write to you on behalf of a chilean group of Superman fans. We have a site (dailyplanet.cl) devoted to all things superman-related, and I'd love to write a note about your creation (including some of the pictures displayed on this page). Please let me know if you agree, contacting me at vgutier@gmail.com. Many thanks in advance!

Wow, that is quite the setup! Amazing detail and mind blowing awesomeness! And I'm not even big into Superman, yet this build does him justice.

Simply breathtaking - the colors are beautiful, the building is stunning, and all the detail is just incredible.

Super fantastic job! Can't find the words to tell you how great this is!

Hands down the best creation I've seen on MOCpages. This is absolutely amazing.

fantastic work, the level detail is of super human effort. so much to take in and enjoy.

Freaking amazing! I'm in love with the amount of detail that you've put into this! Amazing work! One of your best ;)

Incredible !>.....well done.....

what size is the hose you used on the traffic light?

I am stunned by your attention to detail. A most excellent creation here, every detail is perfect.

Okay, we need to do a true collaboration... soon. Wondertwin powers activate!

Extraordinary work, lots of cool details, and this isn't even my type of MOC, but I have to take my hat off to you

This is beyond amazing. How did you make the walk/don't walk signs? That's one of the coolest things I've seen in my life.

THIS IS TOTALLY WICKED! I love every little detail, this is just fantastic! =)

If it were possible to do so, I would want to bear this MOC's children.

awesome, that leaves me speachless. epic. What a cool detail fight!

This is truly stunning. The attention to detail is amazing, and just those little details made all the difference. This has got to be one of your best mocs, considering the fact all of your mocs are great. This one just tops them all. Any chance on taking this to some conventions in the near future? Great job, and I can't wait for your next great post. - KP

Hi Xenomurphy, Your MOC is amazing! The design and colors of the building, the great shapes like the planet itself. And of course all those details! I guess your are making your own stickers? Or did you print it on the bricks?

O_O(speachless)

I thought the Spider-Man vs. Sandman Moc was great but this Moc is much bigger and incredible!!! I really adore all those loving details as for example the newspapers and comics in the kiosk or the traffic lights. But there is much more to adore. . . ;) I wish you all the best for the super hero contest!!! kind regards Biggles

Wow! That's one massive MOC! I love every little detail on it.

Wow! Great job! The building looks awesome!

Okay... wait... I'm speechless! The globe is amazing! The details at the street... Custom stickers? Great! I often tried to make custom minifigs with double sided tape, but it never looked as good as yours! Congratulations for this amazing model! And good luck in the super hero contest!

I am at a loss for words on this one. Certainly one of the more impressive builds I have seen - period. Lee.

Super Hero build, design, techniques, and decal work! Your attention to detail is phenomenal, from your street sign/traffic lights to the degrees hanging on the office wall. It is absolutely all in the details. This is truly a work of art that needs to be incased in a large Plexiglas box, and surrounded by velvet ropes. Outstanding build. ~cheers

Great Job!

This is epic!!!

awsome!!!!amazing building, lovely details!!!

Do let us know when you win! There's certainly no "if" about that! Incredible, incredible work.

Thanks, dear nephew. You can have a closer look at it next time you visit me.

Sure, knock yourself out. Oh and thank you once again for reminding me of the contest - without you, there wouldn't be a LEGO® Daily Planet.

Stop groveling immediately, I might stumble. No, really, thanks for the compliment. Means a lot when it's coming from a skilled builder like you.

Thank you, Quad, but I have to disagree. Dave's Wayne Manor and the Batcave below is a fantastic piece of art and much better than my Daily Planet on many levels. Don't forget, his MOC does have an interior.

Thank you. I'm afraid it will remain in my LEGO® room, it's too huge to be moved.

Thank you, Thoy, but the trash can wasn't my idea. I can't tell you where and when I've seen it for the first time, but it's already been done by several builders.

My my, an astonishing level of detail went into this creation. Impressive doesn't begin to describe it. The decals placed all through it certainly add to the character of the diorama. And the interesting techniques to produce that classic art deco look are quite brilliant. Awesome work of art.

What an amount of very nice details and technics! I'm really impressed! Kudos for your stunning work, Sir!

I must confess that this is really impressive. Above all, the size in comparison to you. Super details, exellent player and nice execution as pure as the water on the roof. Super Moc - perfect!

MOC of the year! Need I say more? XD

This has been up for no more than half a day and has over 100 likes! Congratulations buddy :)

All of the adjective I want to use won't pass moderation so I'll save those for the forum. =P We'll also discuss the multitude of details I will be stealing...~H

I grovel at your feet. You are the supreme master.

Wow. Absolutly fantastic the level of detail and the high level of difficulty in each individual prop. Congratulations!!!

This is Definately up there with Kaleta's Batcave, perhaps topping it, but it's been a while since I've seen his. I'm going to go look at his now. :) Great job, 5/5.

this is the state of the art of lego creation and you a realy super master .....amazing details.soo much pieces too sort and is huge , this is the pure epicness....bravo

Freaking Awesome!

SuperMoc!

This is absolutely stunning! Typically I am a Batman guy over Superman, but this build has me as a believer. The amount of techniques used, combined with the clean feel really makes this stand out. But I must say that the liberties you took in designing the Daily Planet with the planet in front and the rounded large window behind it makes this building amazing.

You my friend are one of the most talented builders I have EVER seen!

This is just AMAZING! I really like your Young Justice figures!

This is incredible. INCREDIBLE!

Oh my god, so many tiny details to take in, it's mindblowing! I love the dark green newsstand in particular, with it's sloping roof and custom printed tiles. :) The Art Deco styled building is just pure love, and the office interior where the robot has smashed the wall is a fantastic touch and perfectly intergrated. A masterpiece!

A lot of the kiddies like to throw around the word EPIC like it means good, but in this situation EPIC or incredible are truly fitting. One of the best and most complete MOCs I have ever seen. Hope this one gets displayed for a lot of folks to enjoy.

Stunning work you got here, Mr. Xenon. Your amounts of detail and the small details never fail to impress me. The whole moc is just amazing, especially the office that has the destroyed wall. The use of the tubes made it look spectacular. The texture to the windows and the pillars look great too. I'm not a fan of the stickers, but whatever, it is still in excellent moc. Great work!

Awesome build! Love that you posted the concept sketches and details fo your experiments with the build. I need to do that more... it's so helpful to other builders. Awesomeness man... awesomeness!

Wholy... By the power of Thor!!! You have really done it this time, what was my threat last time you made the rest of us look like mediocre builders?? This entire builds is full of so many jewels! The effort on all the custon stickers is great and really adds to the finished product. Its hard to pin-point but my favourite part was the side-walk trash can made out of 5 pieces! It was really realistic and to excellent scale! This is a Build to keep in mind next time the Mocie's come around. Well done sir!

Wow, that is so well done, It looks so realistic - for Superman

Haha, be careful that he doesn't get you. He knows where you live.

Thank you, I'm glad you like them. I'm afraid not many people know them.

Thank you, Riccardo. I still owe you some coments for your latest artworks.

I seem to come silent.Why?It's because this is just,wow,amazing,superb,excellent.Awesome work man!

Oh wow. This is incredible! All the detail you packed into this is amazing. Excellent work! :)

Thank you, Chris. Yes, I had to design and print my own stickers, because many of them had to be very specific. I rather don't think about the money, but if you promise you won't tell my dad, I'd say about 1000 Euro (1375 US Dollar).

Thank you, Jared. My Superman is custom and has no belt, unlike the original one. I realised it too late.

I wouldn't want to be in your place when you have ro SORT this thing! Oh, and who's that creepy supervillain behind the Planet, in taches and goatee? He's quite poorly designed...

Thank you for paying attention to all the details, Luke. Although I'm not 100% satisfied with the water, but there was no time left to change anything.

This is amazing. A very nice take on the daily planet, and fantastic work on the details! I love the young justice minifigs too

Yes, those and all the other ones.

My friend, this is pure art, Legos! What work you've done! A huge project, with incredible detail (the markings on the semaphore, and newspapers, pictures with NY). Now I understand where you were going to end .... My favorite part is the planet, and the large arched window. The design of the building, seems to be made by an architect. Breathtaking! You confirm yourself, in my opinion, as the best builder of Diorama, on Mocpages. Congratulations, an Epic work!

Thanks, chief.

Wow, even though this build is spectacular, my favorite part is definitely the sphere. Great work on all those jumpers!

Thank you. And still you beat me with the cars ;o)

Brick by brick ... by brick ... by brick ... ;o)

Vielen Dank.

Thank you, Ru. That was one of my most important intentions.

Outstanding MOC, period details are great, like the roofline also. Great work!

My definition of insane has just improved darasticly! This is marvelous! Your figs are spot on! The building is phenomenal! All the little details just make me feel a little woozy. I have two questions. How much money did you spend on this? Also did you make your own custom stickers? Anyways fantastic creation! Definitely one of my favorites :)

Jeez! This is Freakin crazy awesome!

Awesome!

Not a huge superman fan, but excellent job! Such a great build.

Oh, wow! This is stupendous! What a moc! Good luck in the superheroes competition (not that you need it!). Is that superman minifigure custom, or did you buy the one given out at Comic con?

Just ..... this MOC let me without voice

Totaly speechless O_O !!!!

Holy bajgolemey! Your moc blew the words right out of me! I can't even type any more.

There are no words. You build with absolutely no compromise. It could not be done any better.

This is a first for me on a Lego creation: I have no words.

Wow! This is AMAZING! Full of tiny details that make it just spectacular. A truly fantastic moc! Well done! --Blast--

Amazing! You didn't skimp out of a single detail, and with a build this big that's really something! The techniques used are incredible, like Lois's skirt and wrenches for the lamppost. The water looks stunningly realistic, and I like how the broken part of the building has a ceiling and roof revealed, most people would only build one level. The entire structure is phenomenal, from the sphere, to the arch, to the painstaking details on the window ledges. Truly a masterpiece, great work!

From now on, thy shall be adressed as Mr. Phenomenal. Nuff said.

Amazing!

Phenomenal!

This is easily the most detailed and gorgeous looking superhero MOC to appear on the 'pages in a year, and quite possibly ever! And that's coming from a die-hard Marvel fan! Fabulous work!

Fantastic work. You should be proud of this! My favorit technique : the globe with a trumendous amount of half stud work, and the trafic light is indeed astonishing. Did you make your own decals with that 'walk - don't walk', and the manhole cover ?

Wow one word AMAZING!

Nahh, that's not so big...: )

stupendous MOC!

Wow, so big!

Fantastic!!!!!

Congrats on completing this astonishing project! Great to see it from start to finish, too. It's going on my MOCies list for next year--Awesome!

I wish I could build something this awesome... Excellent MOC, and so many details!

AMAZING!!!

This is an incredible creation!!

This is fantastic! I love all the details! Wonderful work. :O

ravishingly beautiful!

Truly sir, I don't know what I can say that could possibly give this the praise it deserves. I am simply blown away by the level of thought, artistry, and detail that has gone into every stud of this. Thank you.

This is honestly mind blowing! I am just in love with every single little detail in this. Very, very great work on this one!

Xeno, when you shared the WIP pics of this with us I was blown away then... and now... There are no words. This is just STUNNING! Congratulations my friend! You've done "justice" to the genre and made us all very happy for sharing it with us! Good luck to you and Bats in the contest! ~ Chris.

My jaw just hit the floor... whoa... how in the world do you do this?

This is certainly one of the best examples of the incredibe architecture that is achievable with plastic bricks. Fantastic!

This has the amount of detail, cunning and architectural genius, not to mention the budget to make it with such perfectly executed coordination and scheme that I only dream about!

Unglaublich! Ich habe auf deinen entwürfen gesehen dass du deutscher bist ;) Die details sind wirklich großartig. Die beste Superman Kreation die ich je gesehn habe!

Wow. Such a big wow. Best MOC of the year. Can't say more than that.

What Ru said ;)

WOW! This is just amazing! The balance you achieved between sheer bloody massiveness and tiny details, is perfect! Very, very, very well done!

Brilliant work here dude! You didn't miss a single beat here. Every detail is covered, and covered well. The art-deco details and the custom decals put this well over the top. Your action is right on the money, the movement is clear and well captured. This is a serious investment of time and parts, you've raised the bar with this one!

This is soo awesome!!

The details, both big and small, in this are mind-blowing. I'm jealous of your zeal and talent.

Very nice.

WOW, absolutely amazing!

Absolutely magnificent!
