Get on this, Hanzo. :lol:

Saw this unused Fantastic Four concept posted elsewhere today. Usually all we see is his painted work.

Yeah, I saw this in his new art book, Marvelocity -- which, of course, has my highest possible recommendation.

The highlight of the book for me was Ross re-creating the classic Iron Man vs Namor fight scene done by Kirby. So fudging good.

It's beautiful. His Marvel stuff has always felt so "real" to me.

I agree, it’s the best fight of all time — or at least tied with Avengers #3 and Fantastic Four #25.

This is kinda neat. The FF don't need a new logo, but if they did, which one would you choose? I like the top one.

I meant the pose itself is Steranko... though that's interesting. Is that the first documented sighting of a jet-pack in popular culture?
