Description

I want to thank Rich Cirillo for needing money because I have wanted this one for a while. I say this a lot, I love, love, love this cover. It so reminds me of something Neal Adams would have done in the '70s. It will be the closest I get to an Adams cover. Signed!

Yeah, I really see that Adams things you're talking about. Especially in the Thor and Iron Man figures. In any case, just a fantastic image and over all gorgeous artwork. Congratulations!

Alan Davis has grown into his own artist, although his style does evince certain hallmarks of Neal Adams in his prime. This cover especially evokes Adams because of its striking layout and those smooth Mark Farmer inks which so perfectly complement Davis's smoothly pencilled figures. A truly powerful image. Congratulations!
