I've decided. Actually going to go read it in a couple of minutes. I think this ended up being one of the better covers of the series. The lack of color really adds to the presentation.
As much as I truly feel you can draw any character at all and make them look fantastic, your take on the Original Torch and Namor are dead on! I am not a huge Namor fan, but he looks so regal in this issue. And the Torch, is just perfect!
Those preview pages looked gorgeous. Your inks and fantastic. The expressions on the faces, especially Namor, are really brilliantly done. Your colourist has done a great job too: the painterly skyscapes look lovely - so rich; thought you might have done them. he big action panels at the end are great
That page...
ReplyDeleteSO-FREAKING-GOOD!!!!
Now forgive me if I go crying in a corner...

ReplyDeleteAgain, I'd love, LOVE to see your Captain America published in Black and White. Impressive stuff, Steve.
