Excellent choice in subject. Jim Lee's is my favorite renditon of Magneto and Jim killed it with this one. And yes, you can't meet a more modest guy in the industry!
Thanks. Agreed he's been the best to draw Magneto and Wolverine imo.
This is just stupid nice! Wow! Congrats.
Thank you CJ! Appreciate it
Great piece. You went to Lake Como, I assume? Those commissions were not cheap!
Aporeciate it Kyle. Looking forward to your next Bat pick up!
Classic Magneto by Master craftsman. Jim killed it!!! Huge congrats John, its a grail on so many levels. The energy in the piece is just amazing. You need to get this colored.
Thank you my friend. A piece I will cherish for many years to come.
Aside from an artistic masterpiece, the background story about getting to meet and have coffee with your childhood favorite artist will only add to the visual satisfaction you get every day when you gaze upon this piece. Enjoy for many years to come. We tend to put a price on art but sometimes the journey and experience is what makes it priceless.
Well said James, probably best advice i have heard from an art collector. Some things in life cannot be measured with money.
Well said Jimmy. The way it worked out and that experience was priceless. A story I can share for many years to come.
One of the best images of Magneto I've seen. Killer piece!!
Thanks alot Riz! Could not have asked for a better Magneto!
Beauty.
Appreciate it John!
Fantastic
Thanks! Love your xmen pieces
This is outrageous. Bravo!
Thanks Jason. Thrilled to add it to the collection. The whole experience of being able to personally meet up with Jim to discuss this piece makes this piece even more special to me.
Epic, massive, impressive. I don’t care how much paid. Worth every penny. Congrats.
Thank you. Definitely a grail in my collection. Top notch art by one of the most stand up artists. Truly a living legend.
This is stunning John, Congratulations, thanks for sharing and condolences to the wallet! Jim will always be one of the most iconic X-men artists of the modern era, while also being one of the most iconic artists ever as well! It never ceases to amaze me how nice of a guy Jim is. Congrats again!
Thank you. The wallet will recover, but the beautiful art and the whole experience of meeting the artist sparked my passion for comics over 20 years ago is something that will stay with me.
Fantastic piece. It is good to see Jim's style starting to evolve into something a bit grittier. Hopefully we'll see more of this side of Jim's art in published books.
Thank you. Jim did not disappoint with this beautiful rendition of Magneto.
Sockamagee!
Wow...
Thanks Peter!
Phenomenal. From my childhood, Jim Lee's Magneto was THE defining character of my youth.
So jealous!
regards,
Phil
Thank you. Nostalgia at its finest!!!
Just a stunning commission from the GOAT! I can only imagine how badass it looks in person. Great great choice! And isn’t Jim just the nicest man on the planet?!
Thanks. Your Lee commission of the Silvestri Wolverine crucified is also a beauty. I am sure you can attest these pictures we upload do not do justice to the fine details you see in person crafted perfectly by Jim.
What a stunning commission. It would be hard to top this.
Thank you and agreed!
This is incredible! Jim is still at the top of his game.
Thank you. Like fine wine, Jim's style and art age gracefully!
Speechless.
Thank you cousin! #nguyenning
Wow , that’s going to be a cover , congrats
Definitely cover quality. Would love to see Jim do some marvel again, but alas as DC COO :(. Your painted collection is top notch
An Amazing rendering of one of my favorite villains! Congrats on this piece!
Appreciate it RB. Looking forward to more of your Kirby pick ups
Sincere congrats, John! Not an easy get by any means! And Jim really went to town on this covering every part of the board with his exquisite art. Your excitement is clear in your description. Enjoy!
Thanks. Definitely one of my favorite pieces in the collection. Meeting with Jim was the cherry on top
A W E S O M E
Each time i look at it, i see a new detail that i missed last time around. This is a commission quality that only Jim is capable of delivering. Congrats once again!
Thanks my friend. Hope to show it to you one day in person
Masterpiece.
Thank you. Love your Lee Batman pieces as well
Super commission! Love the pose, head, hands, atmospherics, and rock textures
Thanks. Love Jim's rendition of the master of magnetism
Wow! One of the most impressive things I've seen from Jim in recent years and that says a lot! (he does so much impressive work!) The personal experience with him is the best. He is so humble for such a serious bad@$$! :) Absolutely incredible commission and a powerful image of the Master of Magnetism! Hugest of congrats!
Thanks Dave! Being able to sit down and chat with the legend was a priceless experience and adds so much to this already incredible work by Jim.
Amazing piece my friend ! I know u r thrilled by it, and I can only understand the feeling !
Thanks Ed. One of my favorite pieces in the collection with a great back story
excellent piece
that’s a cover!
Thank you
Fabulous! Jim Lee is the perfect artist to capture Magneto in all his glory.
Thank you. Agreed, Jim has the definitive Magneto!
Not long ago I also added a grail Lee Namor piece and I couldn’t agree more on experience and lead up to getting the art plus meeting Jim was worth more than the art itself. This Magneto is a grail. So good on so many levels . It’s a classic image that will only get better with age. Congrats!
Appreciate the kind words. Your Namor commission turned out great
So awesome! This makes me think of Magneto from the iconic X-Men #1 gatefold cover!
Outstanding
Wow! This is stunning. Amazing pick up.
Touchdown !
So happy for you! A piece of art from from a legend.
The best to ever draw Magneto IMO
Thanks Ryan and agree with you. His uncanny and 90s xmen run is pure greatness.
Even if I know this commission very well, i forgot to comment it. One of the best Magneto artwork ever.
If there's something i still miss in my collection from the master Jim, it's a Magneto artwork.
This one is one the best best ever seen and deserves to be a cover in the the future. It's simply stunning.
Congrats 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏
