Very nicely done! Layton knocked it out of the park here.

Always great to get that dose of nostalgia (at a fraction of the original's price!). Layton never disappoints with his recreations.

I remember this one well, back from my comic dealing days. I thought it would sell as well as Wolverine #1 did, so I bought a ton of these. I actually liked this cover better than Miller's close-up of Wolverine's face on his first issue. Is this a full color recreation, or a b&w piece that was digitally colored?

As powerful and memorable Hercules image that ever graced a comic, and Layton stuck the landing with vivid color!

I boughtthis comic the day it came out, only a year into reading/collecting, so I too have a big soft spot for it. Great job all around in recreating it!

Zounds! By Zeus, that's a great recreation. One of my favorite cover from my youth, and he really killed it here. And really nice coloring by Sharen. Congrats!
