A wild composition by Sal, cleverly using the crowded framing to create a sense of chaos. Brilliant expressions.

Yes, while Sal was obviously a lesser craftsman than his brother, his 'expressivity' was truly unique.

I loved the issue, and thanks to Colan's bold use of negative space and the wonderful pose for Clea, the title splash works so well. I do agree that Palmer would have inked it better, keeping more of the fine detail of Colan's lines. Nevertheless, this is spectacular. And I love Janson's '70s inks too (having quite a few of his pages in my collection as well).

I've actually come to love the stiltedness of Romita's finishes, the same way I have over the years developped a heartfelt fondness for Swan's stodginess.

What a smart, nice commission idea !

Villarrubia is truly a great artist. His meticulous restauration work on Richard Corben's work is outstanding, I love his illustrations for Alan Moore's Voice of Fire and his colors on Sweet Tooth are truly epochal. 

Congratulation !

Memorable cover from this Gillen series. We'll probably never see the conclusion of this series but one can hope.

Not quite as high on my wish list as Big Numbers, but still keeping my hopes up. 
(Especially since, according to Gillen, there were only 4 more issues to go. Caanan should return for the grand finale if it ever wraps up).

I love it when Jaimie lets himself be more "cartoony". That and the silhouettes, and the lettering of the title and sound effects.

What an absolute beauty.

Love seeing these characters even though it's a little bittersweet that Fiffe's Copra original art remains unavailable (for now). 

I've consoled myself with a nifty Bloodstrike page, which I will post soon. 

Even better, these yearly single character comissions have become a long-term project of sorts: In 8 years or so, I'll have a perfect Who's Who of the series.

Jesus Redondo's Nemesis and Massimo Belardinelli's Slaine. From what I remember reading, the decision not to reprint their works in those Titan volumes was Pat Mills's. I guess both of these artist's aesthetics looked "old fashioned" , compared to, let's say, O'Neill's or Fabry's.

Great page. Congratulation!

As most historical 2000 AD contributors are now commanding prices far beyond my means, I have started looking at some of their more contemporary artists. I have acquired a page by Leigh Gallagher, one by Henry Flint, and one by Clint Langley, and have been seriously  considering looking for a Patrick Goddard next. This page certainly makes a case for it. Wonderful.

I really loved his work when it first came out, channelling quite a bit of Golden's fluidity. And, many years later, I became a fan again of his more photorealistic style. He left us too soon. Great post. Thank you.

I should've gotten M. Fiffe to do one of the Copra characters when I commissioned him. A missed opportunity given how well your commission turned out.

Knowing Michel Fiffe's deep relationship with offbeat 1980s DC characters, your Atari Force Dart comission is PERFECT.

Harkham is truly great and doesn't get the wide recognition he deserves. Icing on the cake: a letter by Dan Nadel, who was the editor/publisher of PictureBox, the best US indy publisher of the '00s, and a mention of Frank Santoro, a comic author in his own right and an amazing comics critic. This page is a real snapshot of the best this era had to offer.
