and here i am, (un)fashionably late for the party. hey,
it's Kirkman's fault. anyhoo, what can i say about Invincible #64-65 (#64 will henceforth referred to solely as "The Headbutting Issue") that hasn't been talked about already? nothing much, i guess. i'm very impressed with
Ryan Ottley. very very impressed. solid, cartoony yet detailed, and with
FCO Plascensia (is that a group or an individual), the colors bring the destruction to vivid life. this is how they should've done
G.I. Joe the cartoon version back in the '80s. because you can't have war without somebody dying. see that bone sticking out of
Mark's arm during the punch-to-punch splash page? ahhhhhhhhhh! and
Conquest's mangled face afterwards? yeeeeech! one can imagine
Ottley beside himself with glee as he was illustrating these.
and after all that damage our heroes took, including us readers flinching at every impact, i can't think of anything else right now except
Atom Eve. and her new enhancements. go away now, leave me alone.
what are the odds on the rematch with
Conquest? issue #75? #90? #100?
