Description
This is a recreation of DC's Millenium #1, featuring a new set of characters.I have a patron who likes to have artists do re-creations of classic group shots or figure-dense covers, but using a large pool of his favorite characters. He presents a small selection of originals to re-do, and about 250 pages of characters from all over the superhero spectrum.
I'll then suggest a layout or use one he likes, and pick a bunch of 'replacement' characters from his pool. We'll go back and forth a little on specifics, and then I get going.
Unlike one of the other recreations I do where I try to match the inks of the original as closely as possible, for these I use my "own" style.

Thanks! I enjoyed ROM's comic to the end. I remember one of my neighbors had the toy when we were kids, the toy was not quite as cool.

agreed, I had the toy some years later after it had become a collector's item but I eventually traded it off. but I still have the entire series including just about all the tie-ins. over the years I've done quite a bit of ROM fan art usually featuring him with other Marvel characters have a peak csuhsux.deviantart.com/gallery…

Thanks!

Believe it or not, I already have a recreation of that one done by Chris Marrinan who did most of the art on Nova V2. I'm sure yours would be total recreation of #12 by Romita, one of my favorites from the V1 series. I may have you do something more original for me. Might even go outside the Nova box! LOL!

Fantastic work! I also noticed you put Rom, the Spaceknight, in there! Nicely done!
This is one of those marvelous pieces you can look at for a good long time ...

Haha, this is great! I love it. I spot my favorite Captain Marvel(Monica) as well as Nightman, and my boy Rom, amongst many others. Was on the look out for Nexus or Badger. Maybe I missed them.

Thanks, Larry!
If it were completely up to me, Badger and Nexus would totally have been in here..
I do enjoy drawing Captain Monica and Rom!

You're welcome Chris!
I do enjoy seeing your takes on Monica and Rom.
Well in your heart, they still live, they will continue to do so as you rock on.

Thank you, sahr! This hearkens back to when I would switch out characters from classic covers.
