Here's a couple of days work.

•11" x 17" illustration of "The Grim Reaper", no backgrounds.  The details are:

- please draw him in his black outfit with crossbones on the chest as worn in Avengers # 160

action pose with him using his Scythe in some fashion

(Felt like I was really channeling George on that one!)

• 11" x 17" illustration of Dark Phoenix, no backgrounds, the details are:

- please draw a full-body Dark Phoenix smouldering with energy, similar to how she appears in the following commission:

LINK1

(No Infinity Gauntlet and no Phoenix effect so the figure can be drawn larger.)

• 11" x 17" illustration of Dark Phoenix, no backgrounds,  The details are:

- please draw Dark Phoenix with both arms raised with a Phoenix effect.

(Something along the lines of how large you drew Dark Phoenix in the following commission, yet still included a full Phoenix effect):

All three look great.  Definitely see George Perez in the first one.

All three of those are great!

Interesting to see how the two requests for the same character came out.

Grim Reaper was a good choice for a pose commission...scythe, cape, nice elements for you to play with to fill out the art.  Nice touch with the signature too.

All three are excellent, JB. I've always enjoyed the Grim Reaper. I
think it's a great design by Buscema. He's my favorite of the three if
for no other reason than he's not something I recall seeing you draw.
Excellent job.
