My artwork at this point was influenced mostly by Jack Kirby and John Byrne . Byrne was always imitating certain aspects of Kirby’s work so the two influences complimented each other. Kirby influenced my layout and dynamic sense in the penciling. I always tried to get the most action packed pencils I could or in the case of quite scenes, such as this one, the most interesting angles in telling the story. Telling the story with pictures was always Jack Kirby’s priority!

In finishing the pencils, I was trying to use Byrne’s inking style along with a good dose of Terry Austin and some Joe Sinnott. I like to keep the art clean with a good balance of contrast and detail.
