Just couldn't think of a "clever" title for this clutch of characters!

18x24 inches

Here's the original. . .

Superb!

Never heard of that matador, though (head-scratching)

Cool. I wonder if that issue an attempt to improve DD's rogues gallery.

I'd say that's a huge improvement on the original. Daredevil looks like he's in for a hot time in the city!

Much more dynamic!  Love the look of The Frog(?) and those mechanical legs looks great!  Love how they sort of frame the piece.   Like the city scape and of course you get plenty of debris in. Fun piece.

I LOVE ELECTRO!

If there is one super-villain I really have affection for is Electro (and he´s never looked better than here).

No wonder, one of the first comics I read was the Brazilian reprint of Amazing Spider-Man #82.

I was thinking as I worked on it, that Leap Frog, the Matador and this version of Gladiator are characters I have not drawn before -- but then the ol' OHOTMU covers kicked in again. Since I lasted up thru S, they probably all came under my pencil, albeit probably small and insignificantly!

What a great piece to pick out for a commission.  JB you absolutely nailed this one.  Quite possibly the best single image of Electro I have seen.

Amazing work and congratulations to the commissioner.
