I find the Joker's face to be so Sprang-y compared to most, which
reads 'deformed', which reads 'gruesome'!

A JB Batman is a JB Batman. Anytime you draw Batman is a treat, and
IMO the only thing you do tend to really change is the cape for mood of
the piece. The ears may vary in length, but your heart is always in the
right place when you draw him no matter what era, so, in closing, I just
love your Batmen.

I would love to read that story, especially if it were written true to form for 1976! As far as Batman, the "Batman 3D" one is the definitive JB one for me. Really great commission!

There's a lot to like about this, but for some reason it's the Black Pather
who really grabs me.

"Which, if any, strikes Forum members as "my" Batman?"

I immediately thought of the one you so frequently draw
in the commissions - a variation of the Adams/Aparo
Batman with heavy blacks instead of the open blue, plus
no oval. You know... this guy.

To me, it has to be the way you drew him in "Batman 3-D". Like Bill mentions above, it's the use of black that makes it stand out as your Batman.

That Batman commission is pretty much the perfect Batman in my mind.

The above-posted commission is a prime example of "Byrne
Batman".

And I'm really loving the new piece! So delightfully
random!

JB: "...a planned JSA/INVADERS miniseries..."

Aagh! Why must you torture us so? Do you pull the wings off of flies as well?* That is too tantalizing to imagine... and damn DC and Marvel anyhow for being so stiff necked and uncooperative. Because the WWII JSA and the Invaders are such current hot properties that neither company could afford to have either "tainted."

*Which would make them walks, right?

I was just thinking yesterday that it had been awhile since a new commission was posted, and then comes this! Typically awesome!
