Got better is an understatement.  You are one of the greats.

Scioli might get better, too.

bad as you may think that was, JB, you sure get the Kirby machinery. I've been trying for years to get it and I can't come close. For me, that was where Kirby was king; his doodads might not have looked practical at all but damn they were pretty.

<<<I would say Rude is heavily inspired by Kirby but he is in no way a
ripoff. The "Dude" can draw.>>>

Damn straight.

So, having only seen a few of Steve Rude's commissions, which of his books
should I check out?

Start with NEXUS.

Couldn't hurt to also seek out a copy of THE INCREDIBLE HULK VS.
SUPERMAN (edited by yours truly!) and the 3-issue WORLD'S FINEST limited
series, which is available in trade paperback.

Much appreciated.)

World's Finest (written by Dave Gibbons)

Superman Vs Hulk (written by Roger Stern I Think)

(And of course anything Nexus)

And if you really want to splurge : "Steve Rude - Artist in motion" a 40 dollar book, but Oh, so lovely.

I don't know if these have been collected into TPBs but Rude also did a THOR series with Kurt Busiek and a SPIDER-MAN series (forget the writer).  Dude should do more Spider-Man books.
