Now _this_ is a recreation I could get behind! I was never too keen on the idea of tracing the originals, and while I very much enjoyed the re-interpretations, there was a case or two where I preferred the layout of the original. This is a happy medium!

It's in both cases, a cool tribute to the Neal Adams cover, where a character interacted with the logo for the first time in comic book history. :-)

I keep scrolling up and down trying to determine which facial expression captures the evil best!

She's hotter in the original, crazier looking in the new version.

A fierce cover - I like Phoenix's facial epxression better in the more recent rendering. I always thought this was a very intense, effective layout.

Interesting to see the differences in inking. Both are gorgeous and
super clean, of course. Terry Austin's inks are very mechanical
looking. I understand he uses nibs- man, his hands must be hurting
after all these years, because his lines are so crisp...
JB's attention to details(composition, anatomy, light, placement of
blacks) always make you want to stop and take a few moments to absorb
it. Your eyes move around the whole page. His inks are just as powerful
as Terry's though much more organic. It looks just natural and perfect.
I wonder if Terry have ever used PITT pens, and what they would look
like over JB pencils now? I know his inking is different now than it
was then, but if the tools used would make any difference? I wonder if
his inking would look similiar to JB inks if the same tools were used?
