    Byrne draws Marvel again



    Really odd seeing him draw the contemporary Iron Man and Cyclops amidst the other retro costumes.

    and the mini version by Chris Giarrusso

      Byrne's artwork looks sleeker and cleaner than it has in years.....

      I love how Daredevil isn't facing the camera on the mini-version

        Strange too how Byrne has Cyclops with a slight smile yet Giarrusso has him with a grim look

          Agreed! It looks fantastic Really. Byrne's always been a favorite of mine. But when he started inking...he really over did it. I wonder if some else did the inking on that Picture...or he's changing his inking style?

            Loved Byrne's stuff..especially the FF....his stuff was always much better when inked by Terrry Austin IMO

                Yes, I wasn't a huge Byrne fan, but I did collect a lot of the FF in the mid-80s, mainly because I was bored. I don't know who the inker was, but it seemed a bit sketchy by '85/'86. I liked it initially, but it got dull after a while.

                My favorite of his work was his Avengers work from #181-191, She-Hulk was also good. His DC work on Supes and was interesting, but it just seemed he was way over-exposed, having his hand in too many new projects on the strength of his name alone.
                Peace.. Through Superior Firepower.

                    ^^^
                    For that I would forgive the odd compositional/perspective stuff going on with the figures in the front row... Wolverine's top half is standing in front of Cap and Iron Man, but his bottom half is standing behind Cap and Iron Man. It's like an Escher drawing.

                      Byrne has been putting more effort into his stuff of late and it shows. I really enjoyed his recent Trek work for IDW.
