Justice League International 13 p 17 - Giffen and Gordon

The 80s were character gold as this sequence between Amanda Waller and Max Lord shows. As their teams battle it out in Russia, they play a political game back home. Both master manipulators, they circle each other like sharks in this bedside discussion.

Giffen and Gordon do a great job making this very talky scene move with rotating camera angles that give the whole thing a real sense of motion. The windows on the hospital in the first panel are on separate strips of paper glued onto the page.
