There is so much good stuff surrounding this event - I love going through the time line of events and all of the posts on http://www.imageunited.info and seeing how far this has come in the past year

Well I bought HUNT so i guess I'm gonna buy this.

Glad to see he could be a part of this somehow.

And regardless of the usual "OMFG why's he doing that when he should be working on this other book that's so late?" .......he HAD to be a part of this.

While i do agree a cover makes more sense, a page would've packed a lot of emotional punch. Dunno who he would draw, but having you turn a page and bam, it's Jim Lee would be great.

The covers awesome, I'm a big fan of his still to this day.

That's such an awesome cover. Too bad it'll probably be $100 to buy. Hopefully they (Image) releases the HC of "Image United" with this image.

Oh, and I wouldn't consider this to be Jim Lee's first Image work since DC bought Wildstorm (as it says underneath the cover image to "WildC.A.T.S." #1). He also drew the cover to "Invincible" #51.

The sketch version is 100 bucks. The color version is regular price ($3.50, IIRC).

And Spawn#100, I think.

Considering the point of this story is that each character's being drawn by their creator, a page by one artist would kinda be jarring....

....and Lee drawing one of his own would create bigger legal issues (since the WildCATS and others are now owned by DC) than just him drawing a cover.

Which is why i said the cover made more sense and that i didn't know who he would draw.
