I couldn't agree more with you about superheroes, there's really no new superhero stuff I buy any more, I just buy up collections of golden and silver age stuff when things were fun and lots of cool stuff happened. I swear you could fit an entire issue of a modern superhero comic into 1 page of a silver age book. Although I do buy J Torres stuff and I like Darwyn Cooke's New Frontier.<BR/> Man that Thing is AMAZING!! Love it. Just perfect. I'm a huge Kirby fan and I think you've got that spirit without looking anything like his work. <BR/>And it's so cool to see those pages uncoloured! I like them even better in black and white.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15375615378259386972noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34287827.post-40378456133470027952008-10-26T11:55:00.000-07:002008-10-26T11:55:00.000-07:00Very nice!Very nice!Craig Zablohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10350991808928451673noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34287827.post-39375585083277917222008-10-26T07:02:00.000-07:002008-10-26T07:02:00.000-07:00That black and white pic of ol' Ben Grimm is stunn...That black and white pic of ol' Ben Grimm is stunning.
