Really like seeing Superman by JB. Enjoyed his run on the series.  Always good to revisit old friends.

I love how the arm is popping out of the border.  What did you use, markers?

Real nice.  Definitely an improvement on the original.

PITT pens, mostly the brush.

The improvements are amazing (not that there was anything wrong with the first one at all).  There are certain characters that should only be drawn as JB draws them.  The Thing and Superman, to name but two, fall on that list for me.

Mr. Byrne, do you only use Pitt pens, or are there other materials you use heavily?

Brandon, I disagree.  I love other artist's interpretations of Superman, such as Curt Swan, Wayne Boring (It took me a while to appreciate Wayne), Dan Jurgens, Jerry Ordway, and even Gary Frank.  John Byrne's Superman stories are still the best, but there are so many other good ones, too.  His Thing on the other hand is as good (or as great) as Jack Kirby's.  John Byrne's run on Fantastic Four is one of the best in history.
