I mean - anyone could ink JB, if they wanted to? There's 32 issues of penciled pages in the FanFic section!

And I think I have the terminology correct - but that Angel would be "breakdowns", right?

On the Instagram web interface, just clicking within a video will pause/resume them.

Here's one more, and honestly it's more than enough to prove that it's not JB's work:


That's definitely not JB's Colossus. As for Storm, there's more wrong than not - he wouldn't draw marbles for breasts, nor use a Marvel Legends action figure for reference on drawing hands - and those arms!!!.

(edit: ensmallened the image a bit to be less obnoxious)

Insta's user interface is kind of crap, but right-clicking in the image should give you the "Show all controls" option in the context menu.

Must be OS-specific, on my Mac I don't get that option when right-clicking.

Anyway, this is a hint of the signature:

"The colors seem reversed on Angel’s costume……?"

---

Inking the wrong parts of a costume is about as Liefeldian as it gets.

(I would have avoided snarkiness, but I did go and check out his Podcast, and while he was effusive at first, he resorted to old saws about why JB would never work with him, etc)

In his podcast, Liefeld says a guy brought this jam piece into him at the NYCC.  He said only Angel is Byrne's, and it does appear to have JB's signature, but I'm sure John knows his own work and this could easily be a fake.  Good enough to fool Rob; though, lol.

Ah, apparently it's browser-specific as well - I just checked and it shows up in Chrome but not Edge.

I just replayed that part of the podcast, and I did catch the "jam" mention, and how the bottom row is by "John Byrne-ish" artists.

He only mentioned Angel, but nothing about Cyclops either way. I would wager that whoever drew Angel also drew Cyclops since they are holding hands, plus I'm not detecting any flaws on Cyclops which say that it absolutely couldn't be JB.

I should’ve prefaced my request by saying I don’t have Instagram.

Seems that the Instagram post has been deleted... or his account was deactivated.

-C!

Also, that piece would be way cooler if the pencils were preserved and it was inked via overlay. You could frame them side by side!
