Description

Wanted to start 2022 with something bold if not badass. This cover to Power Man & Iron Fist #51-- the 2nd issue of this historic team-up-- features an action-packed shot of both heroes in battle by Ernie Chan. Awesome shot of Power Man's fist punching through a robot dude with mechanical debris flying everywhere, while Iron Fist delivers a roundhouse kicks to another baddie! Chan's incredible details and bold inking give the image real 3-D POP!

Luke Cage would say, Sweet Christmas! Years later, Chan would redraw Power Man's image for the landmark PM&IF #100 cover.

I guess the best thing I could say about this cover is I actually want to check out the book now, even though I've never read an old IF/PM issue!  Wow, nice Dino!

What a wonderful pick up! Love all the details of Cage sending his fist through the robot dude.. but equally love Iron Fist doing his thing in the background. Has that 70s/80s street fight feel.c  Congrats!

When this issue came out, John Buscema and Ernie Chan were at the peak of their epic run on Conan (#25-117).  While Ernie was already a great talent, I think he really learned a lot from working with such a master draftsman as Buscema for all those years.  You can certainly see it whenever Ernie had a chance to shine on his own, as with this absolutely incredible cover.  It's also what allowed him to go from second banana on Conan to eventually doing full finishes on the art, with Buscema just providing breakdowns.  As a fellow Filipino, I couldn't be more proud.

Oooh, great cover! Luke Cage's punch through his opponent is so hard it hits the reader in the face! Chan really does a superb job - congrats!

Does a robot feel pain? This one punch that answers that question. Congrats.

Great power stance with full extension on the fist of fury!  Explodes with Luke Cage aiming to punch through the target.

Nice depth and energy with that Power man power punch, and love that Cage has still got a semi calm expression on while doing it :)  Congrats, Dino!

Man, and I just had my side detailed. Now I've gotta call the mechanic again! Power Man likes putting holes in robot chests. And walls. And whatever or whoever else gets in his way. Super sweet cover! A bronze aged beauty. Congrats!

Talk about a cover packed with power!  Chan showed readers right from the get-go that the Luke/Danny combo would bring the dynamite action that the fans demanded.
