20" x 30" Commission Request - Avengers vs. Hulk

He would like a piece in the vein of the 2008 30 X 40'' " Avengers + FF vs Hulk" piece:

Please do make it a night scene with "heavy blacks" on the buildings.

(After scanning, I realized I'd missed the "T" on Thor's belt buckle. Fixed on the original!)

Beautiful!  I can feel Hank's pain from here. The inking on Thor's upper arm looks really good.

Wow! This is one sweet commission!
My fave of 2012, so far!

Always love to see JB draw the Avengers!
Cool how Cap is blocking the Hulk's blow with
his shield.
Thanks for posting this JB :)

A bit of "artistic license" employed, there. Technically, Cap could take a hit from the Hulk, on his shield, and not even feel it. It's an element of the shield that is interesting conceptual, but can be kind of a drama-killer!

What a jaw-dropper! I love the detail on the Hulk. This commission is a feast for the eyes.

Thor has never been one of my favorites, but my eyes are drawn to him on the page when John draws him.  This image is no exception!  I also keep looking at Hulk's foot, which is just really rich in details.  Great commission.

Great commission. The space in the page is ALL packed with action!!


By the way, about Captain's shield, recently I've seen him be thrown away by the impact of Cyclops beam, which IS kinetic energy (right?)... In theory, wouldn't Cap just stand calmly still, taking the beam behind the shield, or am I evaluating the situation wrong?

According to the mythology, Cap's shield absorbs/deflects ALL energy directed against it. I once postulated he could jump out of a plane, standing on his shield, and the impact would be absorbed, not passed on to him. (There are other considerations, but. . . )

So, yes, Cap should be able to take the full force of Cyclops' beam without feeling it.

Eventhough I believe his body should  be smaller, I love the TEXTURE of the Hulk's skin on this. 

This is how the Hulk's skin should be drawn in every issue by every artist in today's industry:  very rough or coarse.

By the way, another great one by JB!!
