Beautiful, beautiful stuff. Some examples.

Wow, that was great!

Trying to place when he would have drawn it...  Johnny Carson references, cars that might be early 70s...  That would have been one of the seminal comics of my youth if it had been published - damn!

Very cool!  The first half of the story is drawn and inked beautifully, but it sort of falls off the cliff in the second half.  I'm guessing another inker was brought on, or an older and/or disinterested BWS himself who lost his mojo on this.  I guess I can see why it was not published, since Marvel rarely if ever tried a book length slice of life type story without some super heroics to balance it.  All in all, very glad to see this!
