Really like the feel of this piece.  Makes me smile, and it is perfect for a kids room

A perfect result for that commission JB.  I like the choice of Batman. For me, my brain keeps wanting to put Superman in that picture.
That's going to be one happy kid. Well done JB.

Great idea for a commission. Congrats, Dan.

Love the way all the characters are interacting.

(Of course, a storyline in the current Marvel or DC regimes would have one of those heroes have to kill and eat that cat.)

So much to live here.  Plus once again wishing JB had an extended Batman run.

3 days later, and I still get a release of endorphins every time I look at this commission! I can't wait to display it on the wall! Extremely excited and happy about this...!

Seeing Thor, Iron Man, Captain America, and Batman in a recognizable form is very pleasing to the eye.  Plus, it's Byrne goodness.

I wonder.  Did the fans of the "Golden Age" of comic book art look at the 60's 70's and 80's and think to themselves "they really screwed everything up!"?  I get the impression they did not.  I get the impression everything was getting better up until the late 80's with the Image boys and the speculator boom.  And the direct market.  It seems that everything hit the fan after that.

Or am I just viewing it through the bias of my particular lifetime?

Most of the fans of the "Golden Age" were gone by the early Fifties. That was one of the things that inspired the Silver Age. Nobody out there to complain!

(Remember, the life expectancy of a comicbook fan back in the 40s, 50s, and even into the 60s, was about 5 to 8 years. The industry depended on overlap, not continuity.)

...

That was also true for my small circle of comic book friends in the 70s.
I probably lasted the longest at six years. 
Although I held my time with comics fondly ,the continuity stopped after 
that sixth year and didn't start again until catching up recently on JB's work.
