Deathlok (2015) #8, p.20

Badass!

The way shadow bissects his face and legs is just perfect.  Foreboding, imposing... we're fortunate when he's on our side.

".....an artistic mic drop of stunning intensity."  What comment could anyone possibly come up with that could say it better than that?

Come on, come on, come on, come on
Ink brush me, Mike
Can't you see that Deathlok’s bringing pain?
How ‘bout that entrance Henry Hayes?
Making a splash in issue eight
How ‘bout ink washes Perkins made?

Now, I'm gonna frame you
As Mike Perkins breaks the pane
I'm gonna frame you
'Till the doors fall from the lines
For you and I

Looks like a scene played out in Marvel's version of Terminator!

Perkins certainly knows how to make an entrance! 

Brings back to mind the movie poster for John Carpenter's The Thing. Killer splash!

Man, the molded metal doorway, the pipes up top, the whispy "smoke in the background, the explosive floor as it comes towards the camera? It all coalesces together to make Deathlok seem all the more imposing, which tells the viewer that this is one bad mofo who's gonna be kicking your ass!

Deathlok is already one of the most underrated characters in the Marvel stable but Perkins really levels him up even further. Majestic stuff.

Dang, man, this is AWESOME!!!!

Intense imagery. Can feel it! 

The perspective makes the image even more powerful than it is!!! Amazing one!

Here it is in all its tilted glory. Moody fury at its best. I particularly love how Perkins kept his face shadowed here.

Lol, so he knocked the POV on its ass, and it's laying there insensate? Ha, Jason, that is just a brilliant description. And Deathlok! That angle is perfect, and the image oozes badassery. Deathlok is clearly all out of bubblegum...time to kick some butt. Great splash!

Mike Perkins has always been an impressive artist...but this.  This.  This is extraordinary.  The ink washes and inking work in concert, the brilliant figurework.  This is a masterpiece of mood and drama.  Congratulations, my friend!

Wow.  That is bad ass. 

Always a big fan of the rotated lens but here it really feels like we've been injured or knocked down, from the force of that entrance.  Super cool page.

I'm straight up thinkin' '90s action flick...the anti-hero a'comin'!  Nice choice on a tilted perspective, and look at all the different elements used to frame 'Lok - from the exact details of the hall up top and around, to the steam/smoke, to that almost beam of light underneath.  Whew.  And PERFECT choice to have his face mostly shadowed.  Suh-weet, indeed.  Congrats!

Congrats on another fantastic piece. There is an incredible feeling of being there, in that page, thanks to the smart choices and skillfull execution of Master Perkins. 

Perkins knows how to add the appropriate level of dramatic tension to the pages he creates.  An amazing talent creating a powerful splash.
