Anonymous, the Jim Lee and Garcia-Lopez ones are pretty much definate, but I'm going to have to wait a wee while before I put them up. the Corben and Gianni one? hey, you never know. . .; 28 November 2010 18:17
Mykal said...: This is off topic, but I just wanted to let PewPew Girl know that I love her, too.

On topic, this is an awesome take on Batman. First page panels are probably what Frank Miller was shooting for but couldn't quite make the mark: i.e. Tough and brooding without Miller's overpowering adolescence.; 28 November 2010 23:53

Man. I remember going to Italy with my parents, when I was only a young lad, fourteen or so, and filling the backpack with European comics, Torpedo, by Benet, among them. Great, great stuff.
And, man, Italian comic book artists and a woman's legs. The legs just do not stop.
So it's "Gor", not "Cor"? Well, what can you expect from a church production of A Christmas Carrol in Alabama?; 29 November 2010 10:02
joe bloke said...: Mykal, I'll pass it on. & Miller couldn't even dream about ever attaining the kind of talent Bernet has.

& nathaniel, I realise the guy's not Italian, but if you ever get the chance see if you can pick up some of Alex Toth's Torpedo stuff. now, THAT'S great comics!; 29 November 2010 23:12
