Congrats on getting this!

Are you referring to the infamous "Are All Dead" Cover? Thats one of the more classic snd iconic images from TF media, even before they become staples of 80s nostalgia culture 

Yep #5 actually. Reach me to go on 40 year old memories.  I recently read an anecdote by the editor of that that he had to fight Hasbro on using that cover at all. By the great Mark Bright I believe.

Those are some cool covers.  Kyler is working on a commission for me that will *hopefully* be completed soon.

I'm with you that I really appreciate the energy in his art.  The young man is going places soon!

Kyler's a good guy, I'm sure it will turn out great.  Did you see he went to the special artists week Marvel held for upcoming artists?  Very excited for him!

Great page!  I didn't bid aggressively enough on these when they popped up on Heritage...  Love all the shots of Ethan's van and the final image of the El Ricardo is super.  DaM is my favorite Reckless story so far

Well, I for one, am glad you did not bid more agressively!!

I think there is another page up this week

Congrats MIchael.  Classic X-Men was also instrumental in my intro to comics, Marvel, and the X-Men.  And the Bolton back ups were so different and character driven - I fell in love with the X-Men then..  I've managed to snag one from issue #13 and it means a lot to me, like this page does for you.

Wow, awesome Savage Land commission, Mooneyham went all out with the details on this one! It has a Joe Kubert Tor vibe that I love.

Yeah Rob.  Chris really gave me more than I could have reasonably expected with this commission.

It's got a little Kubert, a little Mignola, but the Wolvie is really Chris's.

Couldn't be happier with the piece.

May I ask how you got Mirka to do this sketch for you? I contacted her but never heard back.Very nice congrats!

Hi Tim.

She was taking commissions via a pre-show list for C2E2.  I think she does that for most conventions.  It was through her website - and I think I saw the announcement from her mailing list that you can sign up for there as well.

I don't think she takes many commissions outside of the cons.

Good luck!
