I'm not usually impressed with perez's work at all, but this is a really nice piece, the lighting is very dramatic.

Zombie by no means "hates" him. Zombie just doesn't get how on earth Perez is worth the money he charges.

As they say beauty is in the eye of the beholder. There are even those out there that do not like Jim Lee. I personally think Perez is one of comics greats and with his history he should be commanding best prices. That said there are plenty of other artists wanting much more money than him.

Does anyone have a pic of what his cover recreations look like? I'd be curious to see the level of quality in such a piece.

Thanks for posting those wonderful pics!
Out of curiosity, what were the original covers?
I can't seem to place them.

Agreed. Heck, Marc Silvestri charges $2K for a single pencilled character.
