Thor is the clear winner there... Really not a fan of the others, including the Taylor Hulk...
All things considered, you are going a bit easy on these, to be fair.
None really stand out at all, although Ansin can flat out draw, and he nailed his as you point out.
With each piece, you could close your eyes and envision each given material with the general style of the artist, and you would be pretty close to reality.
Regardless, this is what I said on EB:
Thoughts:::
Not really into the Avenger series, but hope you all get what you want come drop time for sure.
The Moss piece, for me, is leagues better than any other Avenger piece to date. I think what hurts this set is how the artists typically took a literal (unoriginal/bland) approach, whereas Moss went a more inspired route and thus what could have been stale to something original and fresh.
Phantom City is solid here, like the framing of the piece, but still...give me the Moss Cap set from last year...took the same approach with the added creative flair of vintage propaganda posters. Moss is just designing at another level, plain and simple.
That being said, if you are going to be so literal, you better damn well hit a home run and NAIL it, which is exactly what Ansin did. As usual.
Cannot picture hanging a Thor print in my house for any reason, but if I did it would be this one.
Also, comparing this to the Taylor Thor last year is apples and oranges...just interesting to see. Ansin is another level as Mitch points out.
Big fan of Taylor, but feel he swung and missed on this. He is responsible for what I would consider top tier Mondo: Poltergeist, Drive, 20,000 Leagues but sometimes delivers stuff I would call mediocre at best: Hulk, Thor, Beneath Apes, Clash of the Titans, etc. He is like that baseball player who either hits home runs or strikes out, generally. But when he hits it, it goes a long way.
