Byrne's greatness really shines through in this mini series. There is so much raw energy in this strong page... Hitler has met his match. It's also the kind of page I love, one that can stand on its own as a one page story. CONGRATS!!!

Joe, you're a lucky man to get to hang out with these artistic giants back in comics glory days! What a wonderful first sketch from the great John Byrne. I met John a couple of times at several cons and everytime he was nice and very engaging... our hobby is full of great memories, I'm sure you have had your fair share of memories to accompany these gems!

I think it could have been the art checklist in the back of the Art of John Byrne that made me aware of this magazine, I was floored when I finally found that issue and opened it up to see that amazing art in glorious black and white. Byrne/Austin really announced their arrival in a big way. CONGRATS!!!
