So much JUICE!!! TREMENDOUS Bishop shots

Nice!
Congrats E! This page just radiates power and poise!
Great page!
Whilce is just special.
I want Whilce I gotta pay
So I'ma gon' work, work, work for the page
I want pouch and neckerchief
So I'ma gon' make sure worthy XSE
I want Whilce
All these Fitzroy up my neck
We looking art about
All the Mutant kids run around
I can hear that Bishop growl
There's a time line out
And my world just keep on howlin'
Said Eranga sell these if the Portacio worth fifty thousand
Fifty thousand? Ah damn, ah damn, ah damn, ah damn
Oh man, X-Men, X-Men, X-Men
Ah damn, mutant, ah damn, mutant
Outstanding!
A new collection cornerstone!
Excellent, memorable page from his run. Congrats!
Absolutely gorgeous page, fully representative of 90's X-Men style and I love it. Congrats!!
Didn't see this one coming. Hopefully you got to keep your house!
Haha the house is still intact I'm happy to say!
Masterclass!!! A true glory shot of the "Last X-Man". Congrats!
"I cannot accurately or eloquently express how much of a nostalgic and artistic thrill this page is for me."
Uh, you actually just did! Congrats, man, it is a stunningly beautiful page!
Great early Bishop piece, that half splash lower panel is truly an Uncanny image from that era.
Amazing piece my friend. That Bishop panel is 🔥🔥🔥
Magical stuff, inked by Whilce Portacio himself makes this one even more spcial
Epic page!!! And Whilce inks are always awesome. Congrats on a true gem!!!
Holy Moley! What a memorable page. Congrats buddy.
Wow you sly fox hitting a grand slam at the end of the year. Talk about a top teir piece. Can't get more 90's x-men iconic than this page, and an all-Whilce page, and a full figure Bishop!! Damn, look at all those slick feathering lines. Definitely a highlight in any collection but, your's already has a lot of show stoppers so it just goes to show how impressive this one is. Congrats.
I love this! And also a big proponent of one artist pure pages congrats !
Historic (2nd app of Bishop) and visually stunning...2 great tastes that go great together. Congrats on getting a great piece for your collection.
I think this is a sign you should grow your hair out! I'll bring you the bandana to Heroes next year. But in all seriousness, this is an epic Bishop page!!
DEAL!!! But there'll be a lotta disappointed Psylocke fans...
Tremendous! Congratulations!!
Great page! Lots of spotted blacks, which is Whilce's style, but was not really allowed back then by the editors. They wanted to see hatching instead.
I suppose he got away with it this time because of the theme of the page (corpse in a dark barn) and deadlines (this being page 30).
PS I was also more into Whilce's art than Jim's.
High five, dude! I also really love his rendering of the tree line. Almost completely obscured by word balloons on the published page.
Yeah, good that someone removed the word balloons!
I think that to anyone paying attention to the creators back when, the Portacio vs Lee debate (internally or with friends) was a given (much like the Adam vs Andy Kubert one ^^). Wild raw energy VS a more classical approach. I know my answer(s) then and my answer(s) now ;)
What I prefer about the page is the heavy use of blacks and shadows.
(thankfully, both we, as a society and species, and Bishop outgrew the mullet haircut).
Don't keep us in suspense, man! What were your answer(s) then and your answer(s) now???
Suuuuch a cool Bishop panel!
Super-Happy for you!
Portacio's rugged brainchild. Historic piece!
Excellent prime Portacio example. Lee was probably more refined, but Portacio was definitely holding his own there!
WOOOO!!! Ric Flair exclamation for you there, buddy. Quintessential Bishop shot if there ever was one. Imposing, hair flowin', and pure badass. I know how over the proverbial moon you were to nab this one, man. Pure Portacio power, pal! Huge congrats!
Killer page - those inks are beautiful! Man this is really nice E - congrats!
Wow. Such a stunner. One Bishop image to rule the all.
Yes you are.
This is a killer page... Owned a cover from this time period and still miss it at times. Congrats!!!!
