Very cool. I love how the single page tells a whole story.
Always cool to see BWS pencil notes in the margin.
I bet you can see his blue line pencils marks on the page as well.
Classic! :atomic:

right on dan!

what really hooked me on his art was the way he carries a story with the pictures alone.

i've been looking at some other unity pieces from his website but not sure if anything stands out like this one...

Nobody can draw a red X in a square quite like BWS!
I would agree with you, but then we'd both be wrong.

Direct links to comicartfans only work after one has visited the page anyway.

The link is:
http://comicartfans.com/GalleryPiece.as ... GSub=29937

and it's well worth going there to look at this beauty.

I'll guess $600. The reason I ask is because the full splash from that issue is available right now. I was thinking about picking it up, but it ain't cheap.

bingo! i was going to keep it a bit of a mystery and just give a ballpark to update the boardmembers on pricing but since you got it on the nose - nice work!

what unity page is that btw? you mean page 1 with erica pierce?
