John Smoltz: A Double-Feature
There are pitchers—and then there’s John Smoltz.
A firestarter on the mound. An ice-veined finisher in the ninth. Smoltz was a rare breed—one of the few players in baseball history to dominate as both a Cy Young-winning starter and a shutdown closer.
He didn’t just take the mound—he commanded it. Whether he was setting the tone at the start or locking it down at the end, Smoltz delivered with intensity, precision, and the kind of confidence only forged in October pressure.
This Pop Fly piece brings that duality to life with explosive comic book energy: one-half fire, the other ice. A split-panel showdown that captures Smoltz’s evolution from ace to closer—and the legend that grew from it.
Why This Piece Matters
John Smoltz was the ultimate pitching paradox—one arm, two careers, and a legacy built on fire and calm. He was the hammer in the Braves’ Big Three and the final word in the bullpen. He’s the only pitcher in MLB history with 200 wins and 150 saves, a feat that reads more like myth than stat sheet.
This piece is a tribute to that myth. A double-feature special, crafted in classic Pop Fly fashion—bold, nostalgic, and bursting with baseball storytelling turned superhuman saga.

Don’t miss your chance to own this blazing, freezing, era-defining tribute to one of the game’s fiercest competitors.
What is Pop Fly?
What is Pop Fly?
Pop Fly Pop Shop is an ongoing art project by Daniel Jacob Horine that started in 2020. At its core, the project features weekly limited-edition collectible art prints called “Pop Flys,” each measuring 7 x 10.5". These prints showcase sports legends and iconic moments, depicted in the vibrant, exaggerated style of comic book storytelling. Each release captures the magic of both sports and art, making Pop Flys a unique fusion of nostalgia and creativity.
What’s Included?
What’s Included?
Each Pop Fly art print measures 7 x 10.5" and is hand-signed and numbered by the artist on the back. It comes packaged in a comic book sleeve, reminiscent of the comics you collected as a kid. Additionally, each print includes a collectible ticket, which is also produced in limited editions. These tickets are as collectible as the prints themselves, adding another layer of nostalgia and value to the overall experience. We want the feeling of opening a Pop Fly to transport you back in time to those moments of excitement and joy from childhood.

Let customers speak for us
Another great and unique print! Happy to support to Pop Fly Art!
Love all my Pop Flys, but this one really stands out. The artwork is just AWESOME!
Another fantastic piece, and I love the tie-in with Marvel's Punisher word mark. I appreciate the inclusion of largely forgotten players throughout baseball's storied history. It makes for an artistic and historic collection.
Another home run for Daniel (He hit more than Rick Camp)!!! Besides all the different pieces to this event, I really love the colors that just pop!!
This is an awesome piece..let’s face it, anything Daniel does with Murph on it is awesome.
Amazing product!!!! I love it!!!
Thank you for another tribute to my childhood Braves (also have Power Alley and Murph). These prints are fantastic during the magic era of 80s Braves baseball. Thank you! #Murph4HOF
I try and get all the Braves PopFlys but this one was extra special for having so many players I grew up with. Every PopFly is different and spectacular in its own right.
Daniel's work is fantastic, and this print (like all my others) is an amazing design and a really high quality product. I'd give it 6/5 stars if I could.
This game brought back great memories for me and my wife. We were both watching this game in different states before we knew each other. Once we got to know each other, this game came up and we shared our experiences watching this crazy game. This rendition sums it up perfectly! Thank you!!
Beautiful artwork for a memorable event.
Great piece of art from one of the wildest games from my childhood
I know there were some delays in getting the pieces signed and inscribed, but I appreciate Daniel waiting to have all copies in hand to ensure numbering accuracy. The piece looks fantastic in person, and I'm happy to add it to my ever growing collection.
For those on the fence, now is the perfect time to get in on the fun, starting with print no. 201!

“Every time I look at these prints, I think of my father. If artists can channel their adversity into incredible works of art that we get to enjoy, then we should challenge ourselves to turn our struggles into something that can benefit others.”

Meet the Artist
Daniel is the artist that designs all of our Pop Fly Pop Shop prints. Every piece is made with purposeful intentionality and thoughtful effort. Daniel is a storyteller, and during every drop, he is able to showcase the player’s journey and important moments from their career. The art prints do not simply focus on the player's image but about the entire path that has led them to the big leagues.
