DescriptionAND THE CROWD GOES WILD!!!!!!!!!! (except Bruce, of course)Just the most elegant of inserts to keep the kinetic flow, and build the tension another beat. Then the crescendo. Then the hero shot. It's almost rare that we get such a gorgeously grounded image from DWJ. I don't have the proper vocabulary but there is a heavy, classic feel to this splash image for me. Swamp Thing / The Goon / The Spirit / Neal Adams / Kirby - so many influences combined into a wonderfully unique voice. A worthy opponent lies in the shadows - this is Liger Time. Social/Sharing |

YEAHHHHH!!! What a great little story and series of pages. The ashcan was the hit of Heroes con and the OA to the story is so full of life and energy. DWJ is on fire!!!

A wonderful splash that declares proper victory to the main character and the collector himself.

What a capper to this story! Awesome crowd reaction shot complete with ecstatic grins, hugging wrestling fanatics, and a familiar face or two from past DWJ tales. Love the ref's pose and stoic expression

The money shot! Does the ref really need to hold Liger's hand up AND point to him? The other homie's soul is in the astral plane...pretty obvious who won this one.

Tokyo Dome entrance music starts
Wrestlers making the most of the smarks
One on one, fight to be number one
I see you through the pyro air
Kayfabe feels the mask and my stare?
New Japan is still a world away
Liger's three count today, is that
I'm marking for you
Brush art page and you'll know he's true
The Daniel Warren Johnson like this
It's all brand new
Fight spirit is my bliss
I'm marking for you
Liger Thank you
Fighting hard Liger Bomb your heart
I flip over and three count starts
One Two Three, we need no words at all
Story art shows all Jushin's moves
Shooting Star Press deeper onto you
Soon my hand raised, standing still in time
If you read my mind, you'll see
I'm marking for you
Brush art page and you'll know he's true
The Daniel Warren Johnson like this
It's all brand new
Fight Spirit is my bliss
You'll feel it in my bliss
Because I'm marking for you
Touch me once and you'll know it's true
I always wanted any art like this
It's all brand new
Fight Spirit I may miss
I'm marking for you
Liger thank you
Liger thank you
Crazy as you

Spectacular. Great call out on that small inset ("grab!") - it completely defines the rhythm of the action, pausing for just the smallest of beats so that the crowd's sonic explosion echoes that much more ferociously. And again with the lettering! Has anyone done as much with incorporating atmospheric and non-computer/superimposed lettering into their work since Dave Sim or Paul Pope? Superb capper to the story, man. Rich and brilliant work.

Great looking splash. Once again though, I'm even more fascinated by the marvelous euphoric facial expressions of all the denizens in the crowd in the first panel!
