Splendid! Such a cool cover!
The Inhumans are what originally attracted me to the FF. Always glad to read their stories - like this one.
Great image exhibiting what a cool powerhouse Black Bolt is! Like the overall composition, and the detailing on the city of Attilan is outstanding - really must be a sight to pore over in person! Congrats, Will!
Holy cow! These two masterful artists decided to leave nothing on the table when they created this one. It really is an incredible work of art from bottom to top. Major congrats!!!
Amazing cover!
Jaw-Dropping!
Just commented on FB group... soooo epic!
Mondays seem to be the day to post impressive art. Congrats!
That degree paid off!
Great, great cover, right in the Byrne sweet spot! Truly a pleasure to see, so thanks so much for sharing, Will!
Not bad! I might give it wall space. Yes, I think its pretty good.
Will, that' is BEAUTIFUL! But one thing. You wrote "NO" instead of "YES!". you might want to fix. ;-)
Sometimes he needs help with the easy words! Lol.
The Byrne/Austin FF covers are amazing! You difinitely scored big time, and congrats on fending off offers on it for all these years... stay strong! Oh yeah, I love the mudball Thing.
His name is actually Oatmeal Thing, not Mudball Thing. If you don't agree, we should fight it out to see who's right! Oh, congrats on a classic, Will!
Ruben you're on... but keep in mind, in the fight we must maintain a proper 6ft space for social distancing, it'll be challenging, but I'm game... It's cloberlin time! -MUDBALL Thing
Hah! You're right! I guess we'll have to talk each other into submission! Stay safe out there! - OATMEAL Thing.
MAGIC by Byrne&Austin. What an era!
Appreciate all the kind words, here's a couple observations: never known this 'devolved' version of the Thing as anything but Mudball but maybe things are said differently further North! I have no problem with the easy words either --NO means no :O)
Uff-da! Does the descriptor "classic" even begin to cover this? I have SUCH a sentimental attachment to this issue... I started reading Byrne FF about mid-way through his run, and as I was raiding comic shops to acquire the rest of his issues, this somehow managed to be the last one I picked up (besides the ones still to be released :) ). I think it cost me the princely sum of $3.00 (from a lovely little hole-in-the-wall comic shop in Michigan while on a family trip, if memory serves)!
Totally worth every penny, of course, and even more than the STUNNING artwork, the imaginitive integration of real-world social concerns (pollution) into the narrative (in a novel and non-hackneyed way) is still inspiring to this day. Just a typical day in the life of The World's Greatest Comic Magazine, I suppose. Thanks for shaing this, Will!
Love this cover, real treat to still have some Byrne/Austin covers coming out then, this being a great cover for Terry's inks to shine, big congrats!!
Amazing Will, congratulations!
