Also, Eaglesham's art seemed a little off, maybe it was the inker, but between the twindow and Citizen Steel's awkward/anatomically wonky spread arms during the last panel of the initial PG/CS "catch" conversation it seemed like a completely different artist this issue.Zundianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11681590152103237291noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11737441.post-9567392240067220612007-07-12T13:55:00.000-05:002007-07-12T13:55:00.000-05:00No, no.
