These pages are so solid! It probably helps the quality too when you enjoy what you're doing and people are definitely enjoying it just watching each page appear!

Nice work in difficult circumstances Mr. Stanisci! Some reminds me of Joe Sinnott on Mr. Byrne.

Dusty and Rebecca, thank you so much! I really appreciate the nice word. Dusty, I will try to post a higher rez of the inks on my fb page, but probably not till tomm or so. I'm going to try to make time to ink more of these glorious JB pencils around my work schedule during this week.  Thanks again!

Something doesn't add up.  He says he can't figure out how to navigate this site but he knows that JB will "sigh" at certain comments?

Pretty sure the proper response was "thanks for the info, I'll edit my article".

John, I have a question - back in the day I was always impressed by the tech noodling on things like the Blackbird’s seats and suchlike. Was that your pencils, Terry’s inks, or a combo of both? This just popped into mind after the panel showing the back of Wolverine’s seat.

Never quite realized until now how much I've missed the real X-Men. The characters wearing the costumes in Marvel's current releases just don't feel authentic, not the way they do in these pages you're doing, JB.

Things I love about the way JB draws the X-Men

1) Wolverine's mask
2) Cyclops visor
3) Colossus' fingers
4) everything else

Just loving these pages. Thank you

WOW, you are really hitting a stride with page 9, JB. That is a great looking page.

Here is my Page 7.

JB, this latest page is phenomenal. The level of detail and the individuality of each character is amazing. I'm 14 years old again!

...level of detail...

••

A lot of that is just argle-bargle. I kind of slip into a Zen state, and when I come back somebody has drawn a jungle.

I used to find this worked well for me when I was on the phone. I'd be miles away, but backgrounds were being drawn!
