Description

I love me some Scott Morse.

I first noticed Scott's work on his fabulous Elektra book. The colors and his layouts just spoke to me. From there I found some of his work for DC, and his creator owned books. None of them looked like anything else out there, and that's a good thing.

A while later, he and Skottie Young started up a sketch blog where they challenged each other to do various characters. I managed to snag a few of those originals.

Recently, Scott announced on Instagram that he was going to be doing some sketch covers and was asking for ideas on what people wanted to see. I reached out to ask if he was taking on any commissions.

And that's how JJJ was born.

The only direction I gave him was that I couldn't wait to see what he would do with my favorite "desk-pounding, cigar-smoking, pictures of Spider-Man-wanting newspaper editor." So Scott cooked up this cranky MFer.

It's perfect. He's going to look great on the wall right next to Tim Sale's rendition.

Very nicely done to show that a newsman like JJJ can be caught up and obsessed within the Spider's web of Peter Parker.

J Jonah Jameson may be the greatest supporting character in all comics. Is there anyone who's more opinionated than JJJ? Has anyone tried harder to smear the reputation of Spider-Man than him? J Jonah Jameson is like a force of nature--fierce, furious and unstoppable. Love Scott's depiction of him here--Hunched over his coffee, the day's paper in his hand, a look of total disgust on his face. I love the angle Scott chose--Peering through a window, a broken cobweb framing Jonah's sour face. Classic!
