Joe Benitez - Ballistic Wolverine #1 DPS Logan on Motorcycle (1997)

Big Bad Bub.

So cool! 

Too cool for school...or helmets...sick Wolvie...even sicker motorcycle! awesome DPS. I'm also incapable of perfectly stitching together both sides of a DPS with scans without destroying my computer in anger. Thanks for sharing this bad boy!

Very nice!

GREAT DPS with Wolvie looking like a boss on a bike!

Badass piece that needs no explaining!

No Ballistic on it, but still dope!

Wow! Benitez is great and this DPS shows why. Wow!

Just when I thought everything would be OK
Just when I started to believe that everything was going my way
Out came the Sowd to ink on Joe B
Cashing Top Cow is reality

Duke used to call me pumpkin now I'm Halloween
Remember when I used to be your Wolverine?
You used to claws me Logan and shit like that
Now you're after Fleed with a baseball bat!
I remember when ride used to be the king
Your honey sweet darling Wolvie everything
I used to be your small dark mystery fan
Cow I'm just straight up history Dan!

Just when I thought everything would be alright
Just when I started to believe that everything was out on bike
You sketch me with nothing on a doubled dose
That said I would no longer be on love boat

From here on out my pet name would be X
Your X! Your X! Your X!

Sweet Wolverine find, incredible DPS art and we both have pages from this book, cheers!   

Ballistic bros.

That was indeed a cool and fun crossover and Benitez was on fire back then.

Wow! Fantastic Wolverine image!

It's the lost episode of Happy Days. Sunday, Monday, slash your throat. Tuesday, Wednesday, pierce your heart. Thursday, Friday, re-gen-erate. Saturday, what a day, slicing those bodies apart. The Fonz has never looked so mutatedly cool.

This is some of the slcikest, shiniest inking I've ever seen, and the work on that motorcycle is outstanding!

When your head is laced with the world's hardest metal and you have a healing factor, you don't need a helmet! Nice pickup up Dan. (even if it is a DPS. ;)

Fill Her Up.

Gorgeous lines inked to perfection. 

The Coolest, congrats! 😎

The only way this could be cooler is if he were sitting on a buffalo.

Benitez was at the top (cow) of his game in this era. I loved this crossover mini too. Great DPS, man! 

I can dig a chilax Logan moment...we know it ain't gonna last long, bub!  Congrats!

You could count on Top Cow back in the day to produce some of the best comic book artwork on the stands, with this DPS a fabulous example.  Really great stuff!

Big Wolvie lookin' like a true Canadian badass! Hehe. Congrats! 

It's nice to know that every piece of original art has its own story, not only from its creation and its creator, but also from its discovery and final placement in a collection, with a path sometimes made of chance, travels, unexpected encounters and, fundamentally, life stories that intersect between art and passion.

man, wolvie on a bike cant be beat, great taste in gets bro
