That is easily my favorite commission to date.  As much as JB has become one of the few artists who can draw "every day" people he is still better at the muscle-bound behemoths.  Just incredible.

Wonderful work! Very cool!

I'd love to see a collection of these pieces that have a central character with a collage background, like the Captain America piece, the Superman piece, etc.

I know it's not possible, but I'd live to see it!

Late to the thread... but that picture/montage of the Hulk is fantastico! Easily one of my favourite pieces you have done (and there are many, many good ones).

The 20x30s make an interesting contrast to the 11x17s.

How long before a Hulk fan on the board uses that Hulk face detail for an avatar? Heck, I was almost tempted.

I can see that Hulk commission being a centerfold in such a collection! It would certainly "wow" the reader!

I'd use Doctor Doom from the 11x17 commission, now that's a face!

Unfortunately, all I could afford was this Hembeck pic of Phantom Stranger!!

Wonderful utilization of space; I like how the Thing's fist fits perfectly where the Hulk has his leg raised.

Seeing Dr. Strange listed on the character count as D.Strange makes me think of D'Spayre.

How many hours did this one take to complete start to finish?

Hard to say. Started it about 5am yesterday, worked thru the day, went back to the board at 7pm and put in another couple of hours, finished it this morning. Maybe 20 hours total?
