I couldn't help it - I had to ink that page! Thanks JB for making me feel inspired again.

Not bad! Little more variation in line, tho. Think foreground/background.

Also, you left out the little scribbles I add to nighttime windows to create “life”.

I feel those inks somehow add a "George Perez vibe" to the page -- interesting

Nice job

Paul, you just got a "not bad" on your inks over John Byrn e by John Byrne. I don't know what I'd do...

Thanks Nathan! Of course, another influence. The top guys in my day were Byrne & Perez. Over the years I learned to really appreciate the earlier generation of artists more and more - Kirby, Ditko, Romita, Adams. I met Jack Kirby at my comic book shop late in his career and he was such a great guy and was still passionate about comics. I just wish I could find my comics that he signed!

Brian - I know! But I'm sure I'll wake up soon and realize it was just a dream.

I see Marvel are planning an 'event' for next March rewriting history....<yawn>... I  imagine this might make any potential timing of JB's Elsewhen a bit awkward, sadly.

another version of the news:


But wait!  Maybe Marvel has come to their senses and is erasing everything back to 1980 and starting fresh on a new and better track, starting with Elsewhen!

(of course not, but in some reality somewhere that's what the Watcher is watching)

That newsarama link doesn’t work for me.

Oh yeah, that's a great one.  "Marvel history is destroyed" because it wasn't any good to begin with. Seems like a kid who starts destroying all his former favourite toys because he has outgrown them and has no imagination left to use them as they should.
