Thanks to jayembee for the updates on some of my old favorites....
the steranko ca's are some of the most treasured books in my collectio....
but i would like to ask some more questions....
yes Will Eisner is still alive, and i think he is even doing some more
Spirit, but what has joe kubert been doing lately???? i thought that
he had turned pretty much to his school.....
  
ever read the manhunter saga???? comes with my highest recommendations for
a comic book..... great work by goodwin and simi
simonson.... what brought that on was the talkes of will eisner....
there is a story in the back of the saga by goodwin, telling how they
won the best short story award for a plot-line that they stole from
eisner..... and eisner was the one who handed out the award.....

just a comment about an old review.... i think the machine man limited
series was great..... i was over-joyed to see smith work again gracing
the page... the story was a bit anti-climactic, but for art like that,
who cares.... i liked the bit about arno stark.... my one complaint was
that it was  too dark.... but i have to admit that smith has a way with
colors that few people have..... water -colors are supposed to be
his specialty........

                                   but optomists have more fun, and neither can
                                   halt the march of events." -L. Long.
