Description

Pretty great mail call this morning with a lucky/funny story attached. I was looking through eBay last week and saw a piece for sale. I really liked the image but thought it was pretty rough to be the published cover. I asked Ankur J for his opinion. He agreed and said to reach out to Scott Kolins direct in fb. Scott responded a few days later and said yes it’s real but it is a prelim. I thanked him for the info and saving me some money .. then something funny happened . He said well I have the original and don’t usually sell covers but I would make an exception! I was surprised and delighted.. and now it’s mine! Lol

Sometimes things DO have a way of working out :) Congrats on picking this up! Really liking the linework throughout!

Nice cover, especially Phoenix! What a shame the colorist destroyed it for publication. Like a horrifyingly bad 1980's airbrush job. But that's precisely why original art is so great, we get to see the art as it's supposed to look, completely unmarred by bad coloring. A very serendipitous acquisition Jason, congrats!

Butcher job by the colorist... The linework is incredible on this.. all pencils too. I asked Scott and there was no inked version .. Published from the pencil inage. Thank you.

Great example from a very under-rated artist

There's so little Marvel work by Kolins, which is too bad since clearly he has a knack for it.  Awesome cover!
