I met layton once in Oceanside california of all places. he did the other Doom sketch here on my CAF. Without a doubt one of the coolest people I ever met.

That is one heck of a birthday gift, Michael. Bob Layton & Scott Williams - what an amazing combination. Thanks for sharing this beauty!

Happy belated birthday my friend, What a great birthday gift from your brother...

I always enjoy looking at your collection ( im very jealous) Lol.

Thanks for your friendship!!!

To be honest, I have zero recollection of ever doing this piece!  LOL!  Seriously, it's clearly my work over Layton, and my signature, and was probably done at a (San Diego?) convention, but it's honestly like seeing it for the first time.  Very surreal.  Congrats on your your birthday and your cool art present.  And you have a great brother!

It's an honor to have a piece of art you worked on. Even if you don't remember doing it!!! Ha ha! So cool for you to leave a comment and yes-I do have a wonderful brother. Thanks Scott!! You and Bob created a lovely piece of art work.

Now that is the kind of birthday present i would love to have! Iron Man and the good Doctor by one of the definitive Iron Man artists ever, inked by a hall of fame inker himself! Congratulations!

One of the greatest Dr. Doom stories, of all-time, came out of "Iron Man" #149-150.

Without a doubt, one Marvel's finest ever created. Obviously,

this "masterpiece" was done as a homage to those classic issues.

This also stands as my personal favorite Iron Man armor design. (*no school like

old school*) Anyway, a mighty Happy Birthday to you, Mike.

I'd say this was the icing on the cake.. ;)

There's always something special when someone thinks of us and gives art as a gift.  Bonus points for this being a really cool piece that's already 30 years old!  Congrats!

So rare to see Scott ink anyone other than Jim.  Which makes this gift all the more special and unique.  Wish I had a brother like yours!  Not that I don't love my two sisters.  LOL

This is a very nice piece by a rare combination of artists.  So cool!  Happy belated birthday Mike!
