My 13 year old sketch Michael Turner became a variant cover...
I got the below sketch at Pittsburgh Comic Con in 2006 from the late, great Michael Turner. According to him, it was the first time he had drawn Black Cat. It's long been a treasured part of my collection. Recently, Frank from Aspen Comics reached out to me because he wanted to use my sketch as the basis for a variant cover for the new Black Cat series at Marvel. I provided him with a hi-res scan and the below is the result. I've had some sketches and commissions appear in artist sketchbooks before, but this is the first time I've had one of my sketches become a variant cover.

That is wild! Whata great story and imagine pretty surreal to see its 13 year journey.

Damn that is amazing! How did he remember you had it?
Did you get a copy of the cover? I'm sure that the Turner variant will have a hefty price tag.
