11" x 17" illustration of the Golden-Age Superman with a similar feel as the cover to Superman # 14.

WOW! That is fantastic! JB, I hope you had an easier time with that eagle than the horses that have shown up in commissions!

I love the art of inking so I may be biased but I think you're really playing with the ink those days/months

I see more and more drawings of yours with a different kind of inking

And I do mean this as a big compliment

This one has a little bit of Dan Green on it I think

Great! I was just looking at this cover only an hour ago! (I keep all the mini-posters that come with the Asgard Press vintage Marvel and DC calendars.)

Brought a smile to me face. Superb.

I feels like being there. The S. Was Superman jumping or flying there?

i remember reading about the original artwork for 14 being sold.

This is an amazing capture of the Superman of that time.
