I much prefer this depiction of Johnny's power than the "man on fire" approach where it just looks like the way he's normally drawn with fire surrounding him if you get my meaning. Great job!

Awesome work. I remember you said that this piece was coming soon so I was kind of looking for it. Congrats to the commissioner and about time Johnny got a pose!
JB-this leave 4 or 5 on your list now?

The list has grown by three or four since I said their were 8!
That seems to be the S.O.P. -- post a commission, get an order for a
new one.

==================================================
Well I guess that makes sense especially when the pieces have been such high quality. I am hoping mine pop up soon Joe has been bugging me about them. =) (just teasing Joe)

Perfect Torch! Wow! Nice to have this character finally represented among the poses.
Jason,
Regarding your pending commissions, rather than "bugging" you about them, I prefer to think of myself as a "Commission Consultant."

Joe- Ok we will go with that. I would also like to point ou that you do an amazing job as "Commission Consultant".
The more I look at this piece the more shocked I am that it took this long for the Human Torch to get his own.

As soon as I read "Fire"I instantly thought it could be Johnny Storm.

I love the pose of the character. To me it suggests he has risen quickly into the air and this is a snapshot just as he relaxes at the apex of his climb.

JB, is there anything to share about how/why you picked that pose?•• The customer asked for an "iconic" pose. Kirby did a pinup/info page in an early FF that featured the Torch in a pose similar to this, and it entered my young brain as very much "iconic".
