11" x 17" illustration of Dr. Strange vs. Dormammu vs. Dr. Doom. The details are:- portrait orientation - background of Dormammu's realm - please depict a three-way battle with each combatant battling the other two simultaneously - if it works, please depict Dr. Doom firing a "fusion" of magical and armor technology generated blasts

Mr. Byrne, it's a brilliant piece, as so much of your work is. But it's a tiny bit disconcerting of thinking that these images live in your head!
And somewhere, Steve Ditko is smiling. (At least, one hopes he is...)

Did you open up some Ditko for reference on the magical power blasts, JB?

Wow. Just awesome treatment for this commission! After the music stops, from the good, the bad and the ugly. Great work once again.

They eye gets yanked, not drawn, to Strange's hands in the upper left corner. This is a perfect illustration of your "white is the brightest" lesson. This is a great commission. I hope Steve Ditko sees this one.

JB, I've long admired how you can emulate the look & feel of someone like Steve Ditko (or Kirby, or anyone else for that matter), without slavishly aping his style.
Brilliant!
