Power Man and Iron Fist #86 homage

I’ve been itching to provide my take on a few Power Man and Iron Fist covers.

Below is the original comic cover:

PM IF 86

And here we have my reinterpretation of the cover. Right now it’s just a sketch, but I’d like to finish this one up as a full recreation at some point.

    I like the pose, but things have changed since this cover was designed. Nowadays we want to see heroes to be brave, and jump into action right away; we know they are in danger. Back then, people had to be convinced by the artwork that they indeed are in danger, and whether or not they would jump into action wasn’t important; the pathos of their predicament was. It might also be that a sketch card has a different purpose than a cover, and the pose should reflect the purpose.

    What ever the case, This is an example where a weaker pose might still work, but will give a completely different message to the reader.
