That is a menacing Hulk in the center. I especially like the Defenders corner. One scene that would have been fun to see is the Hulk fighting Boomerang from the Tales to Astonish comics.

As to the number of Valkyrie drawings --  a quick search of the Gallery (which is, of course, no where near exhaustive, or fully indexed) reveals two more:

1) The Marvel Calendar splash with Spider-Man

and 2) The center spread of the Fantastic Four Roast

Cool, I've never seen the 2nd one!  Only the FF look like JB's pencils to me, did he work on all the characters on that one?

Ryan is right -- only the FF are mine on that center
spread.

Yes, I sent a doodle to Steve Gerber, when he was writing THE DEFENDERS. He liked it, and had Valkyrie appear in it.

  A few Q's:

1.) Is The Hulk still considered a Monster

2.) Do yuo use a perspective grid on a piece like this?

3.) Was this done entirely with the Brush Nib?

4.) How many characters have been affected by gamma radiation to which altered their appearance?

Ok, you spend years struggling with your art and then one day you're able to
do this. Just think about it.
