A pretty, darn cool dust-up!
Thor vs Juggernaut is a pretty exciting contest -- how I would love to see the next page or two when Thor gets up after being smashed into that wall.
The way you draw the straps on Thor's boots is brilliant, JB. Kind of sums up the way you capture the verisimilitude whilst not losing any of the fun and wonder of super heroes.
Kang's boots are drawn pretty awesomely as well.

Excellent!! I usually look at the image before the description, but this time I read the description first and thought "how in the heck is JB going to pull this off??"
You nailed it, JB - an action packed piece!
Happy Birthday, Matt!!!

Looking for the Barneys does give one a special appreciation for how well drawn the boots are in this one! I've managed to come up with 14 Barneys, but I think I know which one is simply wishful thinking on my part. For some reason, perhaps just the novelty of it, I love that Kang is fighting Spider-Man! Very nicely done.

I really like the way Spider-Man is twisting in mid air.

Matt, you better treasure that piece for as long as you live. They won't be making 'em like the Chief did much longer. As for my favorite matchup from the piece, it has to be Juggernaut going up against Thor. I don't think they ever got around to doing it in Thor's own comic, at least when I was reading it (from around #301 through Walt Simonson's classic run)! Cain Marko would've been the perfect villain for the thunder god.

Matt is one lucky kid. Beautiful work, JB. I especially like Spider-Man's hands and Juggernaut knocking Thor's helmet off. Wham!

Happy Birthday, Matt! Like with so many of the commissions here, it makes me wish I could read the rest of the story that should go with it.

Oh right. Saturday. This piece is just so well balanced, beautiful and packs such a wallop, I just don't know what to say!
And a very happy birthday to one lucky kid!

Found the Barneys, I feel much better now. Love the eyes on Kang. I think Jim might be in line for a parent of the year award.

A beautiful piece of art. One thing I don't think I've seen before are the leather straps inside Thor's helmet. Maybe I haven't been paying enough attention.
