Hi Jon! I've inked Herb on a few other covers as well, I'll have to dig them out for you. I was trying for a classic Sinnott look on this one.

I bought every issue of the original series when it came out so I'm with you all the way on the costume Adam. Thank you for the kind words.

Very slick inks, not heavy handed, and still allows Herb to shine thru on this piece. Very nice job.

Thanks Larry. I'm a big fan of Herbs work so I was trying really hard to recreate that classic 70s style of his. I was looking at Sinnott with just a touch of Giacoia.

Very cool David & great job! I grew up a Marvel zombie from spring 68-mid 80's. Never thought one day I'd know & be friends with Herb & Joe. You captured Joe's inks perfectly!
