Eaglesham & Hickman are Killing It

Seriously how can this be what you open up to just after flipping the first page?  This galactic (lit.) spread made me think back how well Claremont & Byrne captured emotive splash pages back in Uncanny X-Men 80's stylee. 

The dynamic pair of Eaglesham and Hickman is delivering on ill flows(pics) and masterful production(script). Straight Pete Rock & CL Smooth realness...

and Dale, thank you for realizing Mr. Fantastic to look just as gangsta as he is.

Don't Call It A Come Back, They've Been Here for Years

The following books have made their way back to my spine ticklin' pull list.

Fantastic Four #570
Writer:Jonathan Hickman / Artist:Dale Eaglesham

Granted, I have never really been a big fan of FF. I always thought of them as a little bit too much cookie cutter / sitcom family of the Marvel Universe. But with a new creative team taking over, darker things seem to be on the horizon for the super-powered family of four (plus 2, kiddies Franklin & Valeria Richards), as Reed attempts to solve everything. Silly smart man, nothing ever goes well when someone tries to achieve perfection.



The Incredible Hulk #601
Writer:Greg Pak / Artist:Ariel Olivetti

I've collected the green dumb mongoloid before back in the Peter David/Dale Keown days. I lost interest, when Brucey B. was always wining and being a little beeyotch. Alas, enter Pak & Olivetti. That would have been more than enough for me. But looks like Banner finally grows some steel ones and is going to team up with Skaar (son of the Green Goliath) to pick a fight with daddy. Let's get ready to RRRUUUUUMMMMMBBBBBLLLLEEEE!!!!!!





And last but not least....

The Darkness / Pitt #1
Writer:Paul Jenkins / Artist:Dale Keown



















As I mentioned above, Dale Keown as always been a favorite artist of mine. Pitt has always been an interesting character and hasn't been in print for 10 years. Teaming up with The Darkness to battle some scary looking zombies makes for a good book in my eyes. If anything, the artwork will be fantastic.



Indeed, mama said knock you out...
