Description
This one feels a bit like Steranko. I guess I could have sealed the deal by adding a swirling , hypno graphic to one of the backgrounds to really drive it home, but that really wasn't what I set out to do. I'm really enjoying the fact that since I re-designed the logo, I can now use it in the overall design as opposed to letting it just sit there on top of the page getting in my way like most comic cover trade dress. To bad I still have to deal with the horrible scourge called the UPC box. I mean, seriously!?! Does it have to be so freaking BIG! Not at all. But nobody wants to rock the boat in the name of beauty.Related content

Very nice cover. I like how Fine Art elements and Good GD elements are making way to Punisher covers

I like how you fit all the pieces together. Looks pretty cool. Contrast is working nicely for you too.

i always wondered why they couldnt put in the inside of the cover, next to the fine print credit stuff, the UPC that is.

I would make the UPC bigger. Love all those bars. Reminds me of jail...ah, good times.

Very cool. Since Marvel's putting emphasis on an already existing character for the new Punisher Max, I hope they do that for more characters, especially Nick Fury. I love the Max version of him.

Nailed the kingpin, he doesn't seem hokey to me at all. However, you kind of copped out and only showed a tiny bit of him.

I don't really read comics much anymore, but I was just curious what the bulk of your work consists of. Are you doing more covers than interior work these days? Do you also do other illustration work besides comics?

Ah, makes sense! Given the production design pics you've posted before.
Cool man!

Is it weird that I want to see Punisher in Amish clothes now?
I like how you incorporated the title in each of the boxes. Why don't comics put the UPC code on the back?

Because they're scared idiot cashiers won't be able to find it. And it would cut into ad space. Ridiculous. And yes, you are very weird.

I wish, then I could blame Steve Jobs for it not being better. But alas, I have only myself to blame.
