    Seriously, this stuff is leaps and bounds better than some of the artists they had working at Image or elsewhere at the time.

    You're one of my favorite artist Jason. That WILD C.A.T art is amazing! So much detail! Love the shading, facial expressions, and it screams 90"s awesomeness but isn't as crazy as say Liefeld's crazy anatomy. Which I don't hate tbh lol. I'm 35 so 92' with this title, Spawn, and The Maxx which were my actual first ever purchases from b-day money so lots of nostalgia seeing this. Thanks Jason for showing this beautiful art and also for all your great Sithrah books which I've backed. Look forward to having the new book in my hands. Gorgeous books. You're also a inspiration for doing what you love. Not many ppl would leave Hollywood and go independent, it is usually the other way around. So much respect Jason and again thank you, and also apologies for the long comment but just had to let you know that your and inspiration to many up and comers. Thank you for the hundredth time too ha.

      I don't care much either way, I find a bit useless, mildly annoying, sort of as if anyone was watching YT for the first time ever and didn't know thee was a subscribe option. But there's this one guy that at the very starts begs to "like" the video "because if you leave it for later you'll forget," it just makes me want to hit dislike just because I find that insulting.

      Were you having any good guesses at who that other artist might have been?
      I'd assume Travis Charest.
      In comparison, his early work didn't look as accomplished as your 4-page submission. So it might have been someone else. Nick Manabat would come to mind...his work was good enough...but I feel like he joined before '94.

      Once in a blue moon but then I start working on a page and release that I just don't care about the detail like I used to. Since it's not enjoyable to spend 20 hours on a page anymore, and I keep thinking about the 100 pages ahead or 1000 pages of story that I want to execute, my priorities have changed.

    Funny how sci-fi stories will often have the most nearly-magical technological advances, but be on pair in things like diskettes. Or even keep with obsolete technologies, when it's a story that takes place in the future. "Strange days" had people being able to steal people memories and transform them into virtual realities, but they still had the small diskettes.
