Love it... great work as always, sir.

So, so perfect. Love the Reed Richards cameo. Got a feel of classic LeeKirbySinnott FF

Dan McDaid said...

Iconic. Gorgeous. Brilliant!

Bully said...

Oh man, absolutely wonderful! You can just hear the "It's clobberin' tiiiiiiiiiiiiiii..." as he flies off into the distance. The FF version of the Fastball Special: first and best, too.

Nice work, man!

I was really hoping it was John Carpenter's The Thing. But that's okay nonetheless. Stellar work as usual.

Doc Shaner said...

This is AWESOME, Chris! This was always one of my favorite parts of the comics, the FF version of the fastball special.

Thing looks great, I love the way you inked the rocks.

Craig Zablo said...

Another great idea. And it's purty to look at too!

Nice boots!!

That is a beautiful Thing, Chris. Love the feel of it. I'm getting a Kirby/Sinnott vibe off it.

Ron Salas said...

This is great. You really captured the wrestling era of Thing's career. I can see him and Reed fighting the tag team of Wizard and Absorbing Man.

Steve Bryant said...

Please tell me that the FF will make an appearance in your upcoming Thor book, Chris! More!

Thanks a ton, everybody!

The "4" belt buckle on the side is an excellent touch. It's the little things that count (Okay that pun wasn't intended, but now it is)

Great "tension" there :) Now I wanna see the next panel, Chris :D

Cheers,
