Yeah, that is quite a trio to be a part of, JB. =) This info was from a toy reviewer that did an interview with the toy developers. Personally, the artist seemed to lean quite a bit toward your "look" for super hero art. I've seen a few people trying to match the art to pages of yours, convinced it is clipped from previously published work. Still, heavy validation of your impact in the art community.
** edited to add video.

Seeing my name so casually listed alongside the others is still mind boggling. I mean, sure, here I sit in my undeniable geezerhood, my first published work dating back almost half a century, and yet I still feel very much like the new kid on the block.

Broke down and picked this up. I decided to get this one because it was the first version I had seen. Where it was from I can't even remember. I like it more than the no pants and original color versions that are great too.
Edited the slip of the finger... (then) to ease JB's pain.

I would have wagered my children that card art was by JB. He even got the chainmail under the shirt correct!

Just discovered Eaglemoss has done a whole line of figures from the first ALIEN movie, so space or no space, had to get them.Also, a figure of Bishop from ALIENS, since I like the character.

Oddly enough, knew about those, but missed the figures. Anyone know if there’s an Ash?

Doesn’t look like they have got around to him yet. Looks like they have done the rest of the Nostromo crew but not him, although there are a few issues missing on their website.
Can’t find him on eBay either

On a different note regarding Eaglemoss. I completed a survey a few months ago, asking about Babylon 5.
A recent interview confirms that they approached Warner Bros. & they refused the licence. Warner’s are refusing all potential licences for any Babylong 5 product & have been for years now.
Disappointed does not even begin to cover my feelings on this.
