"I just want to talk about something cheerful before I die" (big drab gray-on-gray splash image) Maybe it was intending to make a point there, but on the other hand, there's... The rest of the pages. So glad I have the originals.

Lobok posted:Not sure what it is about Tom DeFalco following legendary runs on titles but he followed Roger Stern on Amazing Spider-Man and Walt Simonson on Thor. And with him was Ron Frenz both times. I've always liked Frenz from his work on Spidey and he seems pretty underrated. When following Simonson (well, Buscema really) on Thor his style is admittedly more of the conventional house style but I'm quicky becoming a big fan of his work. Here he shows us a Celestial judging a planet (yes, this ancient cosmic being is giving a thumbs down) and then an even bigger Celestial at the end. Thanks for this. The cliffhanger panel of #387, which shows more starkly the contrast in size between the two Celestials, just blew my mind as a kid. I had missed out completely on the Simonson run and only came back to it much later in life, but at the time 387 really expanded my horizons in terms of the fun OTT poo poo that comics could pull and directly sparked my interest in Kirby.

Just some incredible artistic groupthink in that era. Manga was slowly but steadily filtering into the west and yet they still all just aped that Adam Warren/Antarctic Press style.

Yeah, the original art is clearly not intending to convey that the dark iris is the entirety of the eye. The white of the eye *is* there, Greg simply made the deliberate choice not to explicitly draw the boundary of the lower eyelid and trusted in the viewer to composite the entire image. It works well. The redraw just has an unsettling, uncanny-valley effect.

"Got hurt a few months back." "How?" "Spine snapped right in two. See?"

Didn't know it was possible for an artist's brainchildren to have Fetal Alcohol Syndrome but I guess it makes sense
