Wow.  That is fantastic and Sauron has never looked more menacing.  I am constantly boggled by the variety of textures achieved using the Pitt pens.

Damn, were you one busy beaver today, JB!

Awesome. The best Banshee to ever come from your hands. The pain coming from Colossus is palpable. The shading on the underside of Sauron's wings reminds me of Kubert.

I did a wee experiment with this one. Instead of building the image with progressive thicknesses of nibs, I did the whole thing (except the solid blacks) with the S (for Small?) nib.

Great!  I like the way Sauron's arms and shoulders are positioned in a way that accomodates the X-MEN logo, but still looks natural.  (Well, as natural as a guy like Sauron can possibly look!)

I'm saying my prayers at bedtime tonight for the wealth of Wayne.  Oh, I would love to have this thing of beauty!  And Sean was well worth the wait.
