Ron Wilson. Recreation of Marvel Two-In-One 80 cover, which is one of my first comic books. Also, I learned that Ron doesn't light table the drawing but rather re-draws it.

Derek, you are correct about Ron Wilson. I have a Marvel Two-In-One #13 cover re-creation and it is completely redrawn.
Growing up, it seemed that Ron Wilson was drawing every Marvel comic book on the rack. He is the man. I have always enjoyed his art.

Nice Wilson piece. I like it even better that he redrew it from scratch. I just googled up the original for comparison. Wilson is definitely one of the "good guys" in my book!

Why in the world does it matter either way that a recreation is done on a lightbox or not? It's a friggin' recreation! As long as it looks like the art it's recreating, the job is done... no matter how the artists does it.boggles the mind...
very nice Wilson commission! |

Dave,
That cover doesn't mean anything to me, so I just find it more interesting that he redrew it, with subtle differences, rather than an exact copy.

Dave: "Why in the world does it matter either way that a recreation is done on a lightbox or not? It's a friggin' recreation! As long as it looks like the art it's recreating, the job is done... no matter how the artists does it." I think it shows Ron Wilson is going that "extra mile" so to speak. I would think drawing from a light-box is some what easier than to completely re-draw the cover. And, it is the same thing. The re-drawn cover will be diffrent from the original, which I think would be a good thing. I know that with my Marvel-Two-In-One #13 cover there are little nuances that I like seeing.

Thanks for the comments guys. Now I'd like to find a colorist who can color the image and add in the logo, etc. This is a grail piece for me, even if it isn't the original. Quick turnaround too.

I guess my thinking about recreations is that, if you want a literal recreation then going to the original artist seems like a waste. If I want an old JB cover redone I wouldn't think about going to him to redo it as it'd be a waste of his talents. There are some guys on line who, if you're looking for something that literal, can do an _amazing_ job redoing a cover.
