Captain America vs. Golgotha - that's a pairing that makes so much sense (and looks great depicted, as above!).

Another lucky commissioner - talk about a fab Crimbo prezzie, wow!


(...of course, now I want to save up the pennies, and get my own WWII-era cross-over - Steve Rogers and Cliff Secord! Loved JB's recent Rocketeer work at IDW, so frankly it's a no-brainer - time to take out a mortage on my saxophones to cover it, methinks!)

JB, I have to compliment you on your Batman (both of them). I'm always amazed to see your Batman, whether it's the Golden Age type we see in this commission or the more "Aparo" version that showed up in last week's commission. The fascinating thing is that they look so different yet are both unmistakably Batman and give off the same Batman aura while each feeling like the character as he was portrayed in two different eras. It's wonderful how you manage to capture two different versions of the same character but make them feel the same and different simultaneously. I really, really wish the climate at DC would be corrected so you could work with him again.

And Cap, as always in your work, is excellent too.

Nay! Presidents Lincoln and Kennedy have each made a bow, in the same piece.

Very nice, JB. Love the shots of the characters especially the heroes. Captain America and Batman look wonderful.

Congrats, Larry. Great idea for a commission.
