Got any cool art on the back of your OA pages?

I love this thread

 

I have found some great stuff on the back of pages...I even have a small gallery on my CAF with this as its focus...but the best back of the page is the Everett Captain America on my "home" page

Also found a nice head sketch on the back of a Paul Smith Dr. Strange page.

Well - I bought this great Catwoman cover prelim from Adam Hughes:

And found this on the back:

It's a twofer!

And the best part is - it was one big piece of paper folded in half. So if I really wanted to, I could make two pieces of art out of the one.

On the back of a Philip Tan X-Men Wolverine cover is a fully pencilled Nightcrawler splash holding a skull. When I bought the cover, it was in his art portfoilo so I didn't realize the bonus sketch was there until after I had it in my hands.

I have a Tim Truman GrimJack page that has the page kind of full-size thumbnailed on the back.

 

It looks like he perhaps sketched and blocked for blacks in reverse on the back of the page and then inked on a lightbox.

 

Anyone else have a Tim Truman page with this technique?

 

I like the idea, since a lot of artists say that if you want to see inconsistencies in a face or design, look at it upside down or backwards, and they'll be more obvious. Seems like he's killing several birds with one stone.
