The request for the incorporation of an Eisneresque title into a commission is a great idea and the way you delivered it is even better. Love the texture of the Fear and the extra character added to the piece by the neon Without.

The use of shadow/blacks is nicely done, adding a noirish feel to the scene.

And including Bullseye throwing the baton adds another dimension of action absent from the 'creeping up on him' description, in keeping with old Marvel's dynamic tradition.

Took me a while to find "fear," which is nicely hidden.  I like your Bullseye.

Fantastic!!!! 

The central DD figure is just amazing!

My favorite elements are the people on the street below and of course the text worked into the background.  Great commission request and execution!

What can be said that hasn't been already? Just absolutely awesome. Another case where I look at what the commissioner requested and thought "how in the world could he do all of that?" and yet JB does it, in great style. Great idea, perfect execution.

I never knew the Jester had more than one costume -- the only one I had seen before this had the multiple tipped hat w/ bells on the ends. I learned something new today!

Very Coll commission.

It looks like the perspective grid was tricky on this one.

Seriously, all hyperbole aside. How the hell do you keep topping yourself commission after commission? I love everything about this. From the detail on DD's boots to the people below. Just superb.

I am surprised no one has asked for an Elektra drawing in any of the DD commissions.  Hopefully, we will see it someday.
