This has become my favorite new thread since JB started the "new Visions" thread a while back. Like that thread, I love how JB is apparently having some fun creating the new art, and his enthusiasm behind the work somehow makes the art that much more exciting to look at.
It's also fun to see how others interpret the pencils when they ink them. I admit, I am more a fan of the so-called "tracer" group of inkers, who follow the original lines and embellish without redrawing what is there. I am not singling out anyone in this thread, and I've stated in other threads that I feel someone of JB's caliber and experience probably knows what he's doing.
Once again, I go back to a former board member from years back who basically redrew everything in JB's pencils when the board was taking turns inking, coloring, and writing dialogue to an unpublished JB Fantastic Four story that JB sent to Marvel as a submission. In that instance, not only was it, quite frankly, some audacity to nearly fully redraw what JB had drawn, but he also changed the space outfits worn by the team so that his inked pages did not match the other pages the rest of us were working on. I recall we ended up using someone else's inks for those pages.
