Very cool! I love the expressions. It is always nice to see some Batman foes in a commission. Great work, JB!

My instant reaction to this was that it reminded me of JB's DC work in the mid-1980s. Wonderful.

Okay -- so does this count as a Batman appearance for the Commissions Count list? ++++++++++ Was it charged as a figure?
It looks great, btw. I also miss you from the big two...

Wow! Another home run after another! Great job JB! The whole thing is marvelous and I agree this would make an incredible cover, but I must point out how magnificently marvelous Catwoman is in this. I love it love it love it!

It occurs to me there is a small but important lesson to be learned in this piece. I have ranted before about how characters seem hardly ever to be created, any more, so that their names actually TELL you who they are, even if they are not directly applicable to their powers. (I usually site characters like Medusa and Quicksilver as prime examples of getting this right.)In the case of this piece, you could show it to a civilian, someone with absolutely no awareness of these characters in any way, shape or form, and ask "Which one is the Penguin?" and be almost certain they would know. Compare that to this: Imagining yourselves never, ever to have heard of these characters (you lucky devils!) which one is "Shatterstar"? Even by a process of elimination!

Love it. Something about the inks in this piece and the Modok piece is a bit different and I love it. Awesome as always
