On the money, really. Thanks for the nice words about me. FYI: I traced nothing. I studied lots of reference, of course, and in some passages I copied elements of certain iconic images. But most of that stuff was the result of seriously blowing my deadline by laboriously, immersively, obsessively studying each artist for days until I could fluently imitate him. It was insane, literally, --but I learned a lot! I can still generate a decent Dick Sprang or Carmine Infantino. Neal takes a little refresher work. Best, ~JON Nicely apt review, Seb.
