I know you've told us before, but why didn't you and Chris stay on PM/IF, JB?

I'd run out of steam on IRON FIST. I'd decided I would stay up to issue 17, for the "symmetry" of writing 17/17 (issue and page number) at the top of the last page.* Then the book was canceled with 15, and Archie Goodwin cooked up the notion of combining two books with low sales to perhaps produce one with better sales. I agreed to stay, since I thought the inclusion of Luke Cage might rekindle my enthusiasm. After a couple of issues, I knew it hadn't.

* The books had 17 pages of story/art in those days.

Nice! Size really does matter when it comes to commissions...the larger format really does them tremendous justice!!!

Not sure what you're saying, Brad. This piece is 11x17, currently the smallest format I use.

WOW, what an incredible surprise!  I cannot thank you both, John and Jim, for another wonderful piece of art and everything that you do!

My apologies for not posting sooner.  I was away for a long weekend, but was having problems posting via my iPhone.
