JB also drew Sersi in the Cap and Android Human Torch reunion story in AWC, I think it was issue 56 or thereabouts.

Michael, you're right that Rhino was originally a Spider-Man villain (he first showed up in Amazing Spider-Man #41).  The Hulk "borrowed" him in the 70s, and he spent the 70s and early 80s as a Hulk villain.

Speaking of the Hulk borrowing villains (is it just me, or did he have a relatively high percentage of regular foes who first showed up elsewhere?), the first time he fought the Absorbing Man (Crusher Creel), Creel was beaten because he absorbed the Hulk's gamma powers.  Hulk turned back into Banner and Creel suddenly found himself similarly drained of power.  This was in Hulk #125.  I don't know if this is typical of the way Absorbing Man was portrayed, but that's at least one data point for the proposition that he can absorb the characteristics of living beings.

"Typical" is probably the key word here. Many times writers -- including some who should know better -- will use a hero's or villain's powers as suits their story, rather than tailoring the story to the characters. I parodied this in SHE-HULK, when I had Razorback, the trucker superhero from Arkansas, turn up having "recently discovered" he was a mutant with the ability to drive anything.

JB: Ross at that time was suffering from an eye problem that made it difficult for him to properly balance the forms within an image. To get around this, he used to lay out the page on the back, then flip it over, and lightbox it so he could do the tightening.

I believe Sean Chen has a similar condition.  When I met him at the Motor City Con a couple years back, I noticed that the backs of his original art pages all had a loosely penciled layout.  When I asked him about it, he mentioned he had some eye condition and this helped him to "correct" it, but I can't remember more details than that.

Nice work on this one, too, JB!  Nice to see your pencil-work before inking, too.

Thanks for sharing.
