Description

Which might me the most important title page of the entire run,

Rom, Starshine, & the Gremlin bury the dead clone of Rom himself, created by Quasimodo. Rom and Starshine later embrace and Rom vows that one day they both will be human again.

Akin and Garvey's inks almost give Buscema's inks a Kelley Jones feel that in my opinion is by far the best art of the run.

Gremlin has a terrific view of ROM's crotch. But seriously, this is great! Akin/Garvey inks on Sal were the prettiest of the run. Congrats!

You must have got this while Kriozere wasn't looking (maybe the 10 minutes or so a night he sleeps?) Nice!

Nice score. I know you were looking. Great page. I must echo Steve's comments, it was the first thing I thought too:)

Very cool--I always liked the rounded, almost 3D effects of Akin and Garvey's inks. Wonder how they worked together? I know nothing about them other than that they have such a distinctive look..
