A Michael Golden MICRONAUTS cover.
It looks like a cover, but I can't place where it was used. It's way too nice to not have appeared somewhere.

Rog 2000, hanging out with some other Byrne-illustrated robots.

.



And Byrne's playful cover for THE ART OF JOHN BYRNE.

A modified version of Byrne's anniversary-issue cover for 236.

I love Stan Lee pictured in the background as part of the celebration.
Somehow Jack Kirby wasn't invited, despite being FF's co-creator.

In a poster Byrne did a year or so later (first as a black and white centerfold in the 1982 FANTASTIC FOUR CHRONICLES, then 2 years later released as this Marvel poster in color), Kirby is , if not visible, still given the co-credit he is due.

A pin-up portrait in the exact flavor I had in mind when starting this topic, from FANTASTIC FOUR 250.

And just a year or so later...



...this similar pin-up page from COMICS FEATURE 27,(Feb 1984), introducing new FF costumes, in a pin-up with a similar style.

.






Some Byrne portraiture of his Alpha Flight characters.

.



Michael Golden pin-up of the Defenders, from 1980.

.




An X-Men portrait by Byrne, as painted and airbrushed by Fastner/Larson, in 1980.
From the X-Men Portfolio.
