I wanted to do an homage for my piece, and the minute I started to think about famous comic covers to emulate, Silver Surfer #4 popped into my head, with Thor fighting the Surfer. Mostly because it's so damn famous, but also because it had a flying character fighting a standing character, which worked for Geist and his opponent, whoever he was going to be. I almost made it Turbine, but then I decided to go with Brutal, since he's bulky like Thor and he has a bad history with Geist.
This is the first thing I've drawn in a looong time. You can check out all my old comic strips at my old Angelfire site, and of course, you can buy Justin Aclin's Hero House on Amazon.

HOMAGE!! I love the night sky and the smoke trail!
Nice work Zach. The house looks good in the background too.
Great idea, Zach! I LOVE that cover. Nice work!
I love homage covers!
I hope that's not the dean's house in background...(dun...dunnn..DUHHH)
It's the Epsilon house! I used Justin's book as reference. (In the original cover, that's where Asgard was.)
Awesome!! I love the movement trail behind Geist
