I like both versions. The second one feels just a little more powerful to me.

Interesting point -- I was still struggling with profiles back then. It took me years to realize the main problem was that I was setting the eyes too far forward, which threw off everything from there down. Curiously, Dave, who was much more skilled than me in that department, didn't redraw the X-Men's profiles!

There is nothing wrong with the perspective. There's nothing wrong with that picture AT ALL.

Hey, charles jones -- is there a reason you clipped
the beginning and end of my post so that it reads like
I'm complaining?
------------
It was unintentional, I just thought I'd cover the facts, I'll edit it.

And note that the funny dialogue between Paty and Bonnie is lost in the translation.
Paty (but she is not named) is the only one who talks and she talks to Dave, Chris and John: "You are finished with doing band appart?!"

This whole thread makes me miss Power Man/Iron Fist. That was my absolute favorite comic as a kid. Nobody else I knew read it, so I always felt like I had discovered this great, secret corner in the comic universe. I really wish that those two characters would be paired again, with the same "buddy-movie" dynamic that made the comic so great. If I am to indulge one fo those "who would you put on what book" wish scenarios it would be JB returning to a Marvel willing to say "Give us the Heroes For Hire".

Working on POWER MAN & IRON FIST turned out to be a very odd experience for me. At first, I was glad that IF had been given a "reprieve", in whatever form, and I looked forward to working on the new series. But there was something about the first couple of issues that left me absolutely cold. I had read and mostly enjoyed POWER MAN, but I guess I had not plugged into his millieu in quite the way I had with IRON FIST. (I was thinking just the other day, no doubt as a result of working on these pieces, that I had picked up the first MARVEL PREMIERE issues of Iron Fist's adventures and had no idea that series would be my first regular gig at Marvel. No way I could have known, of course, but it was amusing to look back.)It had been Archie Goodwin's idea to put the two books together, so as to keep alive the "magic" that seemed to be going on between Chris and me, but he understood when I asked to be let off the new book. Sometimes you just hit a wall, creatively, and there's no way to get past it. And, anyway, X-MEN was already in the works...

"One of the advantages of color lies in the way it
can be used to define form and depth. Neither of these aspects are
available, obviously, in black and white, so the artist must find other
ways to do this."
That must be the reason why I don't like reading B&W reprints of color comics.
