the rough pencil covers are a great treat. it isn't often you get to see the thought and design concepts that go into making the cover.

i love looking at the figure sketches as well. gives one some added insight into how you draw your figures.

great stuff. love the colors.

yeap.

Wow...and for years I was under the mistaken impression that only Sienkiewicz and Art Adams could pull off Warlock. Both depicted him totally different yet both worked.

What you have done here is amazing.

Sweet Alex!!! I like the watercoler look it has. If you get a chance throw up another example. The Nova/surfer/galactus? has some cool potential. I hope Marvel keeps giving you covers (and books), there so pretty to look at.

Even the sketches look amazing. That's not something you can say about every artist.

Much better than that Punisher you did. You do some beautiful stuff. The subjects of Ass are lucky to have you.
