Very nice piece, JB.  I don't recall ever seeing a drawing of the Thing with his hand open.

What a clever idea for a commission! I'd like to see an Avengers one.

The lettering at the top really steals the show but Ben looks amazing. What a great idea for a commission. Cool start to the new year.

Didn't 'Days Of Future Past' take place in the year 2013? That being the case, this scene could have played out on 01 01 10!

Not sure what this means! I don't always draw Ben with both hands as fists!

One thing that has drawn my attention is how much more gaunt Franklin looks in this commission than he did (if memory serves) in the DOFP story.  Makes sense given the living conditions one would assume were present in a mutant containment camp.  Nice touch!

I mean usually the Thing is holding something or making a fist.

Wilson, that was one of the strangest comments I have ever read on this site!

coverbrowser.com -- will show you hundreds of examples of an "open hand Thing" -- including the cover of Fantastic Four #1!

PS Great drawing, JB!!

Ben Grimm's a survivor that's for sure, but it's still hard for me to imagine Reed Richards being slain first. The "apprehended" Franklin also makes me wonder.
Great piece, I'll be thinking about it all day now.

WOW, great way to start off the year!  Congrats to the whomever ordered this.  Makes me wonder who/what Ben & Franklin are staring at.
