I'm glad that Matt started this thread because I've been meaning to re-scan a number of pieces that Fred has done for me. (He does his commissions on paper that doesn't really fit my Mustek A3 scanner, so my original scans didn't turn out that well.) By way of background, the original plan was for Fred to do sketches in the end pages of a few of my bound volumes along the lines of what he did on the back cover to the X-Men Companion Vol 2. The sketches were to include key characters from the run of comics contained in each volume, but ended up moving from the end pages to full-size paper stock because of the sheer number of characters. The Fantastic Four volumes contained issues 226-250 and 251-275 and the Uncanny X-Men volumes contained issues 101-125 and 126-150. (Those volumes are loaded with John Byrne goodness as you all know!) I still want to get him to do sketches in the end pages of those books, but maybe not quite so elaborate.... 
There's an incredible amount of detail here, so I'll make sure to upload high-resolution copies to my blog this week and post a link back to this thread.
