Glad you finally posted this cover! Whenever I see it the lower right hand picture still makes me think its a ShoGun Warrior. LOL. Great Perez cover from the best period in comics history- Our Golden Age!

That's a great team shot in the upper left-hand panel. Great-looking and fun cover, and a superb addition to your peerless art collection. Congrats, Rob!

George Pérez at his peerless best, silky Bob McLeod inks... a great cover from when comics were fun! Big congrats, Rob!

While I am partial to pen inkers (such as Terry Austin, Gene Day or Perez himself) on Perez, there is a nice synergy between Perez's pencils and McLeod's inks that is quite appealing. Combine this with somewhat unusual layouts and you have one of the Mightiest cover images of the time. Congratulations!

It sounds like you may think this was inked with a brush, but I inked it with a Hunt #103 pen nib, Artemaria.

Your assumption about my assumption was correct. You have a nice soft inking style and it is interesting that you used a fine point pen tip, rather than a brush, to achieve it. Thanks for providing historically accurate information - and for doing such a nice job on this cover ;)
