X-Men Chronicles Pinup/ German Edition Wolverine Cover - Jae Lee

YUGE in Germany!!! 

Love this era of Jae's art, great piece!

Loved his style during this time, heluva Wolvie piece!

About 25-ish years ago, I had a choice of either buying a great Byrne piece or a really spectacular Jae Lee piece.  At the time, Byrne was obviously the bigger name.  The Byrne piece was also twice as big, and featured multiple characters.  Strangely enough, the two pieces were the same price.  On the surface, it would seem like a no-brainer.  But the Lee was just so phenomenal that I actually hesitated for a few minutes.  Now I have never regreted that decision.  But here we are some 25 years later and I STILL don't have a Jae Lee piece.  As for the one that got away, I don't think I've ever seen that cover pop up anywhere.  Sigh!   Anyway, congrats on pulling the trigger on this beauty.  Hope your luck rubs off on me and my search for the right Jae Lee piece.

Love the story even though it involves regret, Eric! And honestly, a John Byrne piece is no second fiddle. Any chance of you sharing what that Jae Lee cover was from? 

Who DOESN'T Love German comics?Personally I love Jae Lee art from this period and this version of the clawed man the best. Huge Congrats!

I still really dig this highly stylized period of Lee's work. A real beauty!

Du hast nisht!

Like a Howlett tossed out
As a mutant
We get caught berserkin'
As X Weapon
Art brush wailing, Jae was on
The right track
Got out so far that
We can't claw back
But Logan we can't
Let our hopes go down
It's tough to find out where
Dark Beast’s around

Jean’s gotta reach out
Take hold of one hand
You've gotta reach out
Till you're safe as Lee fan
You've gotta hold on
Baby got a pin up
The splatter reach out
When you've caught all the mutants I love

Love the ink work and fine line. Nothing wrong with a German comic as well. Great pick up. My birthday is 9/8 just pack it well.

Good! By my count I have 5 glorious months with it then!

This is what you call a Win.  Jae art trending up, yowza!

Sehr gut! Jean Grey ist schön.

Gorgeous Jae Lee Chronicles piece highlighting two of the best characters to come out of the AOA and a relationship I've always been X-cited to see.  Cheers on this beautiful cover AND pin-up. 

This once again proves my theory that Germans love Jas Lee.  And David Hasselhoff.

That is quite a cover with the claws and all. Love the shadowed splatter effect. Wolverine is taking on more of an animalistic look and it exudes ferociousness. Congrats!

Wow!!! All time classic image! Congrats!

Wow!!! All time classic image! Congrats!

This captures the wildman Wolvie is supposed to be!  So good.

Glad you made it happen, man!  And yeah...can totally see that "middle ground" look...and I dig it!  Some top notch ink work and techniques throughout, and really like how Logan's lookin' right at the viewer.  Congrats!

Congrats Eranga!  Beautiful Splash!

This is ultra cool!!

Wow never seen this before.  True diamond in the rough. Love AoA. Awesome Eranga 

Memorable early Jae Lee piece, complete with heavy inks.

(and Jean seems to be enjoying her aerobic workout?)

I was a big fan of Jae during his Namor run and that was the sytle I preferred this is an awesome piece that reminds me of that early run. 

This piece is fantastic and it is great to see Jae's classic style! Thanks for sharing!

Outstanding! This is a really nice Jae Lee piece. Excellent acquisition!

Jae Lee! AoA! X-Men! Wolverine! Jean Grey! Pin up! This is so 90's, love it!

Stunning pinup/cover by the amazing Jae Lee!  Love his take on the AOA Wolverine and Jean Grey.  Wolverine here is almost feral in his depiction! I love Jae's brushwork on the figures which gives the characters a restless, anxious energy! What a superb piece by the masterful Jae Lee!

Such a great Jae Lee piece and great era for his style. Super cool to see it was published multilpe times.

What a great page. This is my favorite Jae Lee era (and it's all been great), and this is a phenomenal example of it. Congrats.
