Ok it’s always fun to see your favorite artist’s artwork out in the wild. So when I saw a Byrne Wolverine shirt in an Old Navy ad on instagram I said heck yeah. I’ll be strutting into the LCS with my new Byrne threads! Then I thought I should read the captions before I hit buy… it was a deal breaker. Who writes this mess, obviously not a fan of the character.

Can someone sue you if you're wearing that and have no Wolverine comics to sell?

Except for conventions, which don’t really count as “in the wild”, the closest I got to seeing my work out on its own, was the stand up display for a paperback novel about surfers. The artist had swiped one of my Namor figures as a surfer dude.

IMO, it's the best image of Wolverine, ever.....at that point in time.
But you've done so many more of him since then that were even better.

James—You managed to fix the annoying “&” substitutions, but can I beg and plead that you proofread before posting? Please. Auto-spell is not your friend!(And that goes for all of us!)

That's the one I bought, Charles! I like the "worn" look of it.
Funny enough, I still have a shirt with the cover of WOLVERINE#23 bought back in 1990*. It now looks just as worn, only naturally!
*I wish I could have told 17-year-old me that one day I would own a page from it!

JB, Reddit would drive you crazy! I see so many people posting lengthy topics without a single example of punctuation or even capitalization for the singular first-person pronoun "I." Drives me crazy.
On the other hand, I've begun to speculate that people are writing poorly on purpose, because it stops folks from accusing them of being bots, or writing with AI.
