Description

Bill Sienkiewicz. What If Loki had found the hammer of Thor? This hangs on my wall, archival matted and framed.

I hope this scan does the artwork justice. The dark areas looks more dark blue than black in person. This painting is a bit larger than a typical pen and ink cover. It is incredible!

I remember seeing this book on the shelves as a kid. I don't really recall the details of this story. But, the cover left a lasting impression, all of Bill's painted What If covers did.

This was a very lucky buy from Graphic Collectibles. I put in a purchase request and it was available! This was just prior to Bill changing reps where prices took a quantum leap. I am so grateful to have scored this amazing painting!

Thank you Mitch Itkowitz and Bill Sienkiewicz of course!

Sienkiewicz is able to tap into the power of his subjects and freezes it for all time in his paintings. It has to be taken in at full size to truly understand its intended effect.

That's a showstopper of a cover
