Wow! Now that is outstanding! I would say best montage to date with an interesting character choice. Well done, JB!
This is funny as well as I just emailed Joe H. about the fact I had not seen a new commission pop up in a while (speculating that JB has been busy with his IDW projects) and not 10 minutes later here is a new commission!

One reason you haven't seen a new commission in a while, Jason, is that I actually started this one last weekend, but had to set it aside when it really did start to GET to me drawing all those tentacles!Seemed like I would ink the last of them, then sit back and realize I'd missed one, so I inked that -- and there was another one. So I'd ink that -- and there was another one. . . !!!! I think I now know what Hell is going to look like!

Outstanding!! I think the person who commissioned it was just seeing how much it would take to push JB over the line to insanity! And thanks for the fix, like Joe I was starting to have withdrawals!

I like the two panel crossover of Spider-Man's de-masking.

That's really pretty spiffy! I would never have thought of a Doc Ock montage!

One of the interesting things about working on this piece was the image in the lower right, reminding me of what a low point our friendly neighborhood Spider-Guy had reached in his publishing career, when that story came out!Doctor Octopus marrying Aunt May? And at the end, to get home, Spider-Man hops into the pilot seat of a private jet and flies back to New York!

This is a very nice montage indeed. The central figure is great, and I like the shadowy drama of the top right hand scene. I also really like the inking in the 'panel' with the radioactive material. The rod really does seem to be glowing, which is cleverly done.
