It felt disjointed and rushed. I felt like it was written to be told in two issues, or something.

Not inherently a bad idea, of course, but in practice, that usually looks awful to me, with an over-reliance on really obvious photo reference, with panels based on the reference material regardless of whether they fit the story or not.<BR/><BR/>Incidentally, speaking of reference material, did anybody notice the Previews ad for a new Jack Bauer action figure? The ad shows the figure in detail, with an accompanying picture of Kiefer Sutherland as Jack, in the same outfit... and the two look (to me, anyway) almost nothing alike! My first thought was, "Huh, so they're doing action figures of minor *24* characters now? Who's that guy? The bad guy who pretended to be a concerned father in Season One? Soul Patch, maybe?"David Chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16985574193396205518noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11737441.post-54800493924496410182007-08-02T08:49:00.000-05:002007-08-02T08:49:00.000-05:00nice!gives me hope for IDW's Doctor Who book comin...nice!<BR/><BR/>gives me hope for IDW's Doctor Who book coming out in a few months.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11737441.post-40814431450643550772007-08-02T02:20:00.000-05:002007-08-02T02:20:00.000-05:00I liked this book, a lot more than Star Trek TNG: ...I liked this book, a lot more than Star Trek TNG: The Space between, which had awful art, and a boring an non-sensical plot.<BR/><BR/>The art here, on the other hand, didn't dazzle me at all...
