It is one of those wird coincidence days. A couple hours before I recieved the notification that you posted this I was actually showing one of my employees the art. It's a toss up between this one and my Spawn Kills Everyone - Death of McFarlne page I own for my favorite Spawn, but this one wins for dark ideas (Spawn Kills Everyone is very funny, but not the height of elegent comic art).
Here's a link to the other one:

I always wanted to kick Cyclops in the nuts. He's a crucial character in the 50 years of X-Men, of course, but if I was to see a t-shirt with just Cyclops on it I would not buy it. Interesting how we can have such feelings for a fictional character. 50 years of comics means a lot of deep character development.
It is amazing when collecting, now knowing how much I have missed not being as avid of a reader of all the "X" comics for the last couple of decades. I have done my best to follow all the Krokoa books - which are a LOT, with a ton of 1-6 edition side projects combined. It has been such a good run with it all.. But I didn't try as hard in the early 2000's, and when collecting art I find it is opportunistic much of the time. It is going to be for sale right then and most likely not again, so grab it up. I have bought so many pieces that I have not read the source material for - which is where Marvel Unlimited and DC Universe Infinate comes in very handy. Harder to do with Image or any indie comics (but I have found that Hoopla - the free "streaming and books" service from my local library has a TON of indie trade paperbacks and has been an amazing source of free reading). It's been great to get cought up on it all - and this is one I will be fitting in this weekend, I expect. I have run in to a few lately that Marvel didn't have online. I bought some What If artwork from the 80's and they have a ton online, but there is a gap where I have art. I need to just find them on ebay or hear to Mile High Comics (I'm in Denver - and I really don't want to get in to a "Chuck is expensive" thing for mentioning them.. I will say that with 60% off almost always in house and with the HUGE selection, you can't find a better place sometimes). Most of the new comics I buy are graded, so reading things are really online - or I buy a lot of Trade PB or Omnibus' to read vs collect. Wow, that was quite the tangent from me! Thanks for the info on the characters!
You're absolutely right. Totally Mirror Mirror and probably no perfect person to have that "situation" then Emma.
I love this cover, Tony! With taxes being only 2 days ago, I don't love it as much as I love the US Federal Government (well, that's what they told me by requiring that I pay many multiples of this purchase price). Someday I will have one of your covers, though. Really great work. The watercolor/ink combo gives it a very cool depth.
He did a great job getting that line in there. Obviously he taped them off. I pulled it out to see if he actually had a different page for that panel, and he did not. It's all together. I have not had time to check my Hellraiser collection to see if I have #14 since I purchased this, but I will soon. I'd love to see some original Sandman works that are painted, but I probably wouldn't like to see the price compared to these - which were FAR below value in the auction. My wife used to own a gallery, and we never sold a random painting anywhere near like this for under $200 - abd definately not something published. Always love your comments, Marcus!
Thanks for pointing Thunderstrike out. Of course Thor and Thunderstike.. look the same. I decided it would be a good idea to read the comic after your post. Fixing my description now. I could have just checked out the cover, also!
