It looks Adrian Alphona-ish, but I don't think that's it.

Thats the first name that popped into my head. But it's not him.

The Jean Grey looks like Mike Allred work.

Hard to say, no clear faces :)


To throw a name out in the off chance that it is right, Chiang?

Whoever it is, I really dig it. Here's Wacker's quote: "Received 2 more pencil pages from a top secret Spidey/X-men project by one of my favorite artists…who is faster than I ever imagined!"

So it must be someone at least somewhat established.

Kevin Maguire maybe?

He would work really well on a Spidey issue.

It looks like a dude that did a bunch of Classic Xmen covers.

Iceman and Angel look like Michael Turner art style for me and this reminds me that he is gone :(

Tom Raney? That's the vibe I get from Blob and Kraven, anyway.

It looks an awful lot like Alphona, but he said he left comics for commercial work.

That's looking sorta Paul Smith-ish to me.

I hadn't heard that. That's a bummer, I loved his comic art :(

He was my favorite new artist. And he was supposed to join my favorite writer (Terry Moore) on my favorite title (Spider-Man Loves Mary Jane):(

The more I look at it, the more I'm sure it's Mike Allred. If I'm wrong, I'll eat my hat!

Jean's face is very Allred-y, but the inking style is way off as is a bunch of other stuff.. So I'm guessing Nick Dragotta.

I hope your hat is made of nachos.
