Thanks, Gerry. I'm very pleased with it. As I think you know by now, New Mutants is a title that has a lot of sentimental value to me, so I was pleased to be able to get this cover, which is my first original New Mutants cover. By the way, I haven't forgotten about scanning the 20" x 30" JB commissions, but I still haven't made it to Kinkos with them yet. Hopefully this week (fingers crossed!).

I came to the forum tonight hoping to see some nice new JB commission, but it was worth it to see the beautiful art posted here, especially that Swan piece. What I wouldn't give to own a Byrne or Swan Superman cover or Splash.

Great cover James. The moose horns make it all the more special. ;-)

Just won on eBay...conceptual sketches of Ulik and Quicksand by Ron Frenz. His late 80s THOR run is some major nastalgia for me:

Hey Joe, those are some really cool Frenz pieces. I'm a big fan of his work as well. You might have already seen this but since I know you were looking to buy some Frenz and Buscema art I thought I'd give you a link to this auction.

Boy, I really like the original art with the lettering on it better than without.

Here's another Frenz Thor page from the same vintage as my sketches...this came from Frenz and Breeding's dealer (same as the sketches, this page wasn't on eBay though):

The Frenz stuff looks great. Btw, who was writing Thor when he was on?
And those JB pages with lettering and all are sweet, Wilson. Congrats!
