Wolverine vol. 2 #77 page 13 Adam Kubert

OAX story Part 2: while talking about issue #77, I mentioned to Adam that maybe my favorite 2 pages of his art were in this issue, that I’ve been looking for them for years. He asked which ones, I showed him a picture of this page and the one preceding it. He looked at them and said “this one I don’t have, but THIS one I do”. To which I immediately said if he ever finds it and is willing to part with it to please let me know. I gave his wife (who was wonderful this entire experience) my email, assuming they might look for it whenever he had time and if I was lucky, I’d get an email eventually…except the next day they walked in and saw me standing around and shouted to me that they had found the page and she was about to email me! So I followed them to their booth completely flabbergasted that they’d found it last night. As Adam handed me the envelope this page was in, I said “I can’t believe you brought it with you today” to which he responded “I brought some other stuff too”….

I love this page, the way it’s laid out, the emotion on Logan’s face, Farmers inks, use of lighting, everything. This page is why my warmup sketch is almost always a Wolverine hand.
