I'm never disappointed to see Batman or Cap in one of your commissions.  You absolutely own them both.  Fantastic work all around!

I've never heard of Baron Blitzkreig before, but I love his design.  I'm off to do some research.

This one makes one ponder how much JB´s art has improved since he drew the Batman-Captain America book!

Mostly the inks. I was going through an experimental stage when I did Bat/Cap, and in retrospect I don't think the experiment was entirely successful. (But, then, I don't think ANY of my past work was entirely successful!)

Interesting. I don't. And, I mean, I REALLY don't!

The Nazis had some of the best uniform/tech designs, like, EVER, and this does NOT seem to fit that model.

I was thinking mainly of the anatomy and foreshortening of that Batman figure...comparing it mentally with the splash of Batman picking up Cap from the Batplane ladder.

I reckon there´s some evolution since then!

But, yeah, the inking, especially the rendering of textures, definitely improved.

I just did a Google image search. Yellow, orange and pink?  Horrid, and not at all what I expected.  I was expecting red, black and white.  I can see why you don't like it.  You did good here, though!

Doom is anti-Nazi?

Anti-Nazi, but PRO swiping their weapons! Unless Wolverine can stop him!

I don't know how you do it, but you top yourself with every new commission. Words fail to describe how incredible this one is.

Baron Blitzkrieg is an inspired choice. This is so amazing and so much story going on. I need to look at this a lot more!
