Warming of the cockles---Winning!

I wonder how envious 1980-JB would be of 2018-JB's skills?

Temporal self-loathing. Wild.

Just came across this and thought I would post it here instead of a new thread.

“Formal”? Not really sure what that means in this context.

The result, of course, is that what I am drawing looks a whole lot like it did in my head 38 years ago, but was then beyond my ability to achieve.

Odd, but somehow a distinct warming of the cockle

This is why I feel you might be the best inker for this project, should it progress. Lock-and-step as you have advanced as a penciller, you have refined your inking to the point that I view you as the single best-equipped person to ink your own art.

Delighted with what we have already received, no matter how it pans out though!

I seem to be experiencing a kind of retrogression in my thinking processes, building pages and panels as I would have in 1980, but with 2018 sensibilities. It's as if my younger self was doing the layouts, and my current self the finished pencils.

I keep going back to that panel of Kitty phasing through the grille on the vent. My favourite panel so far. Her determination and her powers at work, make for a great heroic pose.

Last time I’m going to say this:

This is something I created specifically NOT to ink myself.

God, I'd love to see Terry or Trevor Scott ink this.

Those are both great choices!

JB, I ask this out of curiosity, not out of trying to generate anything, but what stands in the way of this becoming an actual comic we can buy (I'll buy 2, at least ;)  ) ?

From the posted article: 

“That was more of me being a fan and saying hello,” Cebulski said during the panel’s Q&A session. “We haven’t really discussed anything formally. I just wanted to let John know the opportunity for discussion is open.”


Very enthusiastic about the possibility of this series. I do hope it happens. Sounds like there’s been no discussion since (based on the article).
