Yeah, an awesome idea, perfectly captured by JB. Congrats to a very lucky owner!

Very nice. Now that's how you draw Dark Phoenix!

I dig the grim expression on Iron Man's mask/helmet. In theory it should be an expressionless, unchanging face, but the artistic licence of granting a bit more human expression to this kind of thing grants the scene that extra bit of punch.

Would be interesting to see what happens next!

One of the things I enjoy about the commission pieces is the "mixed bag" we get of characters requested.   Its always interesting to see what characters or situations a person wants.
  
JB, hopefully its not some type of breach of etiquette if I ask what sort of direction if any came with the request?

I'm in the same boat, Ernest....especially when it's a mixed bag of the company crossover kind.

I just noticed a fine detail, too...I thought "Uh oh! Why doesn't Thor have his hammer?" then my eyes scan and see that somehow Dark Phoenix somehow seperated him from it. AND she got ahold of WW's lasso!

It's a shame that we don't get to see what happens next :((

I really enjoyed this one.  Dark Phoenix looks lovely and frightening.

Shocking! Senses Shattering! Beautiful!

This has a whiff of the same magic the first Superman Vs. Spider-Man
comic had for coming completely out of nowhere to me. What an obvious
concept that I have never thought of.


I have to say that Cockrum costume design suits Dark Phoenix to a "T". It
becomes majestic when it "goes dark".

What a great commission. To me, it seems as though Cap is protecting a vulnerable Thor.

Hmmm.  Its funny but the more complicated Iron Man's armor gets in the current comics the more 'hi tech' his classic red/gold armor looks to me. 

Clean, streamlined, uncluttered.... y'know...Hi-tech.

Having long ago exhausted my meagre supply of superlatives on previous JB commissions, I have refrained from commenting on recent ones, preferring to sit in admiring silence rather than engage in repetitious redundancy (oh, wait, that's...oh, never mind!). 

But I gotta say, spectacular artwork aside, that is a feckin' BRILLIANT idea for a commission!

The most technological armor Iron Man could have would probably have him looking more like the silvery liquid form of the T-1000 or something like Amazo in the JLU Animated Universe. Just a smooth, seamless form coating his body.

Look at an iPad and then look at a Dell PC circa 1999. Then look at Iron Man's armor in the 1980's and his armor in the 2000's. One's becoming more futuristic, the other less.
