So while this isn't technically the end of the backlog (there's lots more stuff left to go through), this IS the last of the solo Thunder Woman images that I commissioned that I had yet to share, barring illustrations that have not been scanned; for those, I will share photos of the physical copies.

And there's a reason I saved this one for last, as I personally consider it the very best illustration of Thunder Woman to date, which is saying a lot considering the caliber of artists who have taken a crack at her over the years.

This particular depiction of Thunder Woman comes courtesy of JanRockitnik , an exceptional artist in general but in particular a master of the well built female physical form. I had had him on my "to commission" list for many years, but usually had to forgo doing so for financial reasons. So once I was at a point where I could afford to commission him and he was available to commission, I grabbed the opportunity to do so, and was very pleased at his very positive reception to Thunder Woman. What was even better was the pleasure in working with him to craft this illustration; I was given a number of sketch thumbnails to choose from, many featuring her in a typical action or flying pose. Such an image is perfectly fine and I have even specifically gone for such before and after. However, there was one sketch that I was drawn to featuring her in the pose above. It was just such a different type of pose, and I fell in love with the idea of something much different, more casual and light. It brings to mind the classic cover for "All-Star Superman #1" of Superman casually sitting in the clouds. And in some ways, Thunder Woman being so relaxed here gives her a kind of quiet, reserved strength that makes her look stronger than in some images where she is making a more overt exertion of power.

So yeah, Jan knocked this one right out of the park, giving Samantha a thick, distinctly muscular physicality that just suits her so well. Combined with his painterly style and the composition, yeah, this is IMO the best image of Thunder Woman around, and certainly one of my absolute favorites. I'm almost always happy with a TW pic, but this one goes above and beyond.

Anyway, I hope you guys all liked and enjoyed this series of TW solo pics. The backlog journey will continue, but this time the focus will shift to slightly different, but related subject matters...stay tuned.
