Description Here is a "recent" cover I did for Marvel in where
I ripped my own idea.... [link]
DC didn't use it so I decided on my next Wolvie cover
It would be the perfect place to revisit that idea.
Thank you Marvel.
I love drawing the X-Men.

KNOCKS MY F'N SOCKS OFF! LOL. Those lines are sweet! What kind of pens/markers did you use? Some thick, some super thin. Instant fav!

Nice cover! I like the inks with the Leyendecker like highlights in the blacks.

And you shouldn't "resent" the cover (in your Artist Comments)

Glad u caught the Leyendecker in the work...
Im trying to figure out how to do more of that type of thing
in my work.
I actually picked up the idea from Paul Smith...
looking at his" Leave it to Chance" originals...
They made me see some Leyendecker but with ink.
Im glad u dig the piece.

I used to have fun with that too. You see it a lot in Alfredo Alcala's work.

One of my influences in using that technique was through Mitch O'Connell. When we were in school together we both loved Leyendecker, but it really showed in Mitch's work and I picked up on it.

Mitch O'Connell is the MAN.
The fun thing about comics is...
we can be malleable to suit the project at hand...
Leyendecker one day and Romita Sr. the next.
Your art always feels as if you are
taking the language that Kirby,Romita,Wood, Buscema and
the such created and serving it back to us to
in a fresh bold energetic way.
Your inking has the guts I wish I had.

Yes he is!

Well, thanks. The longer I was a comic artist the more I looked backward. Old comic art, illustration, or similarly influenced is definitely my leaning.

Although I always liked more expressive, spontaneous inking, I learned to loosen up the most from doing con sketches and inking my own work on a regular basis.

In both cases I had to learn to draw in ink. At a con or on a monthly you can't do full pencils, and now I prefer not too. I stop penciling much sooner than I did in my early years and finish the drawing in ink.

Hah! I love the idea of taking an old rejected Batman cover concept to make a new Wolverine cover.
And you know what, this new cover is so good I'm glad it all happened that way.

Man, the colored cover is cool too!
