Looks a little upset.  Wouldn't want to be the one he's after! 
Very nice piece.

Well, now. One of my favorite single-figure renditions of ol' Logan and perfectly recreated here. Bravo!

As there are no backgrounds, does this one still count as a recreation? Price wise I mean

Since it IS a recreation, why would it not "count" as a recreation??

This is a great choice... especially considering how the original was signed.  Love it!

I thought it might not count as a recreation price wise because there are no backs. In amy event, it is a magnificent Wolverine. Just an all around powerful image

Nice job, JB.

Oh, and that's one of the few issues of WOLVERINE that I own!

I've actually never read the issue, but the image is still one I know well. Probably one of the most well known Wolverine images ever

Ryan, this one isn't for me. It just so happened that I asked Jim Warden about a recreation of this last week, but he said someone else had already asked for it.

that is about as realistic as a drawing of Logan can get.

Neal Adams is proud somewhere, JB.

Your superpower? Able to switch gears at a single penstroke.

Sorry, Vinny!  I was thinking this could be a 'before' shot from Batman's point of view.

Cool!

I was very happy back then to see you back working on the character, end even more with one of my favorites writers.

I liked a lot Klaus Janson's inks on your pencils too. And i wasn't a fan at all of his work on Frank Miller's DD.

I like him on JRjr too though.

One of the best if not THE best Wolverine's I've seen. I guess if it indeed HAD a background it might be better but I cannot think of any other way to improve the pic.
