If you had unlimited $$$ and could get any commission you wanted tomorrow...

1) What artist would you ask?

2) What characters/situation would you ask for?

Assuming I've relocated into my new estate and I'm allowed (yes, I'm married) a room of my own to do as I choose...JB doing a wall-size picture of the Marvel Universe.  Heroes. Villains. Buildings. Transportation. Planets. Cosmic characters.  Aliens.  The works. 

It'd be a big room.

There are only a few artists I would really go out of my way to get commissions from even if I had all the money in the world.

I've always wanted a Romita Jr. commission with The Kingpin looming over a nearly defeated Spider-Man. That's my dream commission. Inked by either Tom Palmer or maybe Scott Hana.

There are a few I would love to see done by Greg Capullo, Alan Davis, Aruthur Adams, Erik Larsen, Ryan Ottley, but naming what I would want them to do would take an entire day.

There are a few hundred ideas I would like to see JB draw and nearly everyday another one pops into my head. There are a few characters which he has never drawn and probably never will that I would pay a fortune to see drawn by him. Still, realistically, I would love a huge piece of The Fantastic Four and a few others battling a swarm of villains.

Without a doubt, JB writing and drawing Uncanny X-Men #144-150 using the outline that was shown on the back of an old drawing here on the board. 

What? You said unlimited funds!

Since I don't own any, I go to JB first. I'm thinking a DPS. Two 30x40's
that meet together. It would be SHIELD vs. Hydra. Foreground- the
deck of the helicarrier. Fury, Dugan, and Captain America against
Strucker, Madam Hydra, and a ridiculous number of SHIELD and
Hydra agents. The background would have Hydra Island ( it's sort of a
down shot) and in the mid ground, Quartermain and Jones fighting
Hydra goons with everyone in Jet packs.

Many of the artists I'd want a commission from have passed on, so I too have JB topping the list....

Limitless funds....

I'd get a 20x30 Shadow montage. I've love to see JB's take on those characters.... but I thought he was on JB's off limits list. 

If that is the case:

a retake/reimagining of X-Men #115 as he would do it TODAY.

Well there are a few artists I'd like 

I would love from J.B. to do a WWII piece involving the Invaders/JSA vs various WWII era villians with some Nazi's spread thru out. 

I would like Mike Ploog to do a 70's Marvel horror spread.
