Hi, I’m Chris Haley. You may know me from my respectably popular webcomic, Let’s Be Friends Again, or my work for ComicsAlliance.What you’re looking at here is my take on Jim Lee’s famous X-Men #1 cover from 1991.
Okay, well technically, this is my take on two of the five sections that make up that famous mega-gatefold cover, but you get the idea.
It always bugged me that Magneto wasn’t even looking at the X-Men, so it looked like they were all attacking him from behind (at worst) or the side (at best).
I decided to kind play that up and have the X-Men look a little crazed and have Magneto be more scared of them or perhaps aghast at their terrible manners.
This is original, one of a kind art (pencil and ink) on 9”x12” heavy bristol board and it actually looks better in person than this scan would have you believe!
Like I said, all of the proceeds for this art I’m selling go to a good cause (me being able to pay my rent), so if you like the picture but can’t afford to bid, please help me out with a REBLOG.
Thanks for your time, dudes!

chI’m bidding on this AND YOU SHOULD OUTBID ME. YOU! THERE! WITH THE BAGS OF MONEY YES YOU GO NUTS.
THERE’S ROUGHLY ONE DAY LEFT ON THIS AUCTION OF MY ORIGINAL ART!
IF YOU CAN HELP ME OUT BY BIDDING OR REBLOGGING I WOULD DEFINITELY APPRECIATE IT!

Look, I can’t afford this, but you should bid on it so that I can live vicariously through you, and also because it is awesome and would help support one of my favorite humans. SERIOUSLY, STEP THE FUCK UP, PEOPLE.

“…AGHAST AT THEIR TERRIBLE MANNERS.” That’s my new catchphrase. Also, this is really cool, ergo signal boosting.

Damn I wish I had money, so I could support this guy in any way, not just bidding on this astounding piece.
