Matt Webb Colors Thing Collage Old School!

When veteran comic book colorist Matt Webb asked me if he could take a crack at coloring my Thing Collage, I was excited. Matt was colorist on John Byrne’s NEXT MEN in the 1990s, and is the regular colorist on the Monsterverse graphic novel series, FLESH AND BLOOD!

Matt told me he’d like to do simple colors using the sort of color palette and k-tones that would have been available on the 1960s FANTASTIC FOUR comic covers, so I told him to go for it! I really dig what he came up with! It’s the classic Ben colors from the Lee/Kirby/Sinnott era, and I like how he kept the floating heads simple–like ghostly images from the past! Nice work, Matt!
