Description
One of the great things about commissioning art is that it presents the opportunity to pair a great penciler and a great inker together. There's never been a comic published featuring pencils by the awesome Arvell Jones and the incredible inks of Bob Almond, but that's exactly what this piece of art features.



Bob may be best known as the frequent inker of and collaborator with the incomparable Sal Velluto, but his inks give polish to virtually any penciler that comes his way. Arvell did a bang-up job on the pencils, but Bob took it to the next level. Its why I dubbed him The Ink King.



You can commission Bob at comicarthouse.com. You can also visit his own website at almondink.com. Go ahead, take whatever piece of penciled comic art in your collection in need of a great ink job and send it to Bob. Guarantee you'll be glad you did.



And oh yes -- a special thanks to former Galactus herald -- the one Galactus never talks about -- Brian "Marvel Two-in-One 76 Guy" Sagar for using his power cosmic to merge the penciled and inked images above together for me.
Brian lost his heralding job after leading the Big G to a Planet Hollywood when he got hungry. Its a mistake anyone could've made and its Galactus's loss. Brian Sagar rules!

A beautiful piece, my friend!! I don't think enough is said about how important a penciller-inker combo is to bring out the best in a penciller's work. Great choice of pairing these two talents!!

Sweet Christmas...it feels like a super cool 1973 New York City Harlem Night.

Cockroach checks in, but he won't check out! Arvell and Almond -- two more great tastes that taste great together when spread onto a Cage Match. Delicious!
