Interview with Bob Almond
With Jager

(excerpt)

How about creators? Who would you love to work with?
George Perez. He's the artist to inspire me to join the world of comics. Perez Avengers would be the ultimate project; I've only inked a partial Avengers TPB cover to date. Other artists would be Jim Starlin, John Byrne, Bob Layton, Carlos Pacheco, Bernie Wrightson, Tom Raney and some I've most likely missed.

I noticed that they had a slightly different cover of AVENGERS: SUPREME JUSTICE TP.

AVENGERS: SUPREME JUSTICE TPB (Apr 2001) AVENGERS: SUPREME JUSTICE TP (Original Cover?) (Mar 2002)

Original cover (including the back) is available on Bob Almond's website: www.almondink.com, since Wednesday, March 13, 2002.

Also, updated image for AVENGERS T-SHIRT VI (Grafitti)

The cover for ULTRON UNLIMITED is a recolored version of the cover of AVENGERS #22 and the other is a piece with a little bit of explanation needed. It was originally pencilled as my "thumbnail" for a painting that Tom Smith and I did for a charity auction. I penciled it at standard cover size and then blew it up and retraced it on a large board. Tom then painted on the board. That left the original pencils intact and I gave those to Tom as a present. Tom then, for his own enjoyment, had different inkers, including Tim Townsend, Scott Hanna and Bob Almond ink a figure or two. When Marvel needed a cover for the SUPREME JUSTICE TPB, Tom offered up this piece, which he in turn colored (and everyone got paid). Just figure you'd like to know.

Since I order these books through Comics Now (35% off), I won't be getting them until March 6th. According to Wizard and Diamond, both of the AVENGERS reprinted books have been published and shipped.
