Damn man. Those are nice as hell. Do the two of them have a site or a Deviant Art page and do they take commissions?

They do work by commission, but I don't know if they have a web presence or not. I have an agent who seeks them out at comics and anime conventions (they live somewhere in the Midwest, I think, and usually hit cons in Chicago - Anime Central, Reactor, Wizard World, that kind of thing).
I lol'd at the first one

Hell, so did I. Actually, it was more of a drawn-out snort.
I didn't provide any information on characterization in the reference material, just screencaps of the characters, but that could well be a scene from one of Jen's daydreams during a slow day at the Secret Lair.
Those are both wonderful pieces. I love the humor in the first and the second one is just awesome!
... I sometimes pay people who are to draw my characters.
Anyway, a few months ago I posted a pic commissioned from one of the Moy brothers (of Legion of Super-Heroes fame). Phil Moy received the briefing "Captain Photon vs. Gen. Rossum", and what I got back was, um, a creative interpretation of that briefing, you might say.
Well, apparently his brother Jeff can be trusted to stick to the spec a little more closely (not that there's anything wrong with the Phil piece). I asked him for a pic of Jen in action, and that's exactly what I got (with special guest appearance from her PB, No. 76).
As a special bonus, when my man Phil Moyer (not to be confused with Phil Moy) was coloring this piece for me, he showed me one of his preliminary phases to make sure he had the base colors right. I remarked that with the heavy flat shading he had going on, it looked like a panel from a Mike Mignola comic, so he finished a version in that style just for laughs. Hellboy/Gen.
