Ah, it's simple but I do like the traditional-like Chinese border around each issue's first page. Likewise, the very first panel of this issue's opening page, of a corner of Border Park facing an adjoining residential (?) highrise under a night sky, I really like that image, too. Haha, and looking at that panel's caption, I'm only now seeing/'getting' the city's name of Oligopolis. Cheeky naming, as that was published decades before I even heard of, much less found out about, oligarchs and oligarchies. Still...these flying vehicles, complicate this story's setting/lore. But I'll not get distracted or diverted by those, moving on. “It's a good day to die”!? Does Klingon Worf - or the actor who played him, Michael Dorn - from Star Trek: TNG know about that line being used? Also hahaha: “Stan”, who kind of looks like old American film and TV actor Lee Van Cleef. Of course readers have to judge books by their covers, otherwise, how else would somebody's work catch the reader's eye, appeal to the reader and thereby inform the reader that the content could be of interest...!? I digress, merely criticizing another low-thought, long-time common expression. Yup, still good, still fun, even though something(s) about this series makes it feel like not-a-Marvel-comic. Anyway, I'll move along and see your review of the next issue, ideally tomorrow when you premiere it! Take care, TSPH.
@@mikefanofGDNgenuinedarksyde703 The fact that it feels like not-a-Marvel-comic is actually a good thing. It shows that the people involved with this mini series were willing to take risks and give their own spin to it while staying close to the source. A reader, artist and particularly writers should read, take inspiration from multiple genres and markets. Not limiting themselves to just one or 2 particular publishers or one genre that has been milked out years ago.
Action looks great. Good art too. I need to get this one
@@darksydeiscomics1891 Physically they are hard to find. I got the pdf's from a not so legal, but still legal source
Yeah. THAT's what you need, Lord Hoarder. How are those legions of Legion of Super Heroes floppies doing? 😁👍🤪
