Fun! I can see why you wanted to re-create this at a young age. I thought Duursema was incredible and the only reason I stuck with Arion.

Beats the heck out of anything in MY Hembeck collection.  So cool.  Hmm, I wonder if he still has that AOL address?

He does but doesn't check it that regularly. I was fortunate that I caught him on one of the days he did.

Terrific sequence. I'm not sure why Bagge pages are so inexpensive relative to his alt contemporaries but Hate aficionados are the benficiary. ???????

Wonderful. I wasn't able to read Nexus for about three years when my family moved to Japan. When I got back issue #50 was my first issue. I vividly remember Rude's wild depiction of Selby in panel 3.

I enjoyed this one-off issue back in the day. While I preferred Akin and Garvey's lush inks over Sal on ROM, Sinnott shows here why he's a master. He brings out the best in Sal's pencils.

My favorite exhibit at the 2025 OAX show was the complete Sanford Greene art for Bitter Root #1. This is a marvelously evocative piece that illustrates why the series, and Greene's art, are so good.

Not sure when Kaluta piece but it feels like a (welcome) throwback to an earlier era of Diana's history when she didn't always have a sword in her hand and an angry look of determination on her face. Wouldn't it have been nice to see Kaluta draw an annual of this particular WW and in this style in the 80s or 90s?

Brilliant write-up, Mark, and you nail all the key elements Chris is displaying here.  Even though you say it isn't -technically- a published Acme piece, it's right up there (and counts) in my book.  It stands as a brilliant example and summation of the design-centered excellence Ware unleashed with his Comics Library (that, in 2000, Pantheon would soon be introducing to parts of the reading public that would never have experienced it at that point). TOTALLY counts. :)  Epic piece, Mark - huge congrats on this heavenly beauty!

Thanks, Jason. Much appreciated.
