I like the figure work better here, but the original is definitely more "iconic".

11x17 (27x43cm)





(Bumping this into the Commissions folder, even tho
it's not really a commission.)

Since this is a reimagining and not a recreation, was the logo requested?

Great looking cover JB. I especially like the use of the leaves falling. Kind of like all things must end.

Not a whole lot left, so many of them have been done, either directly or on a technicality. For example, here are 114, 115, 133, and 141. And altho the orientation is different, this surely counts as a reimaging of 140.

And this, of course, is a king-sixed re-imagining of my first X-MEN cover, 113.

Yes, by me! I did this one for my own amusement.

I like this better than the original.

JB, do you think if you did this one back in the day, it would've been approved for the cover? Is it iconic enough?
