It's as if those were the only issues published, and the ones in between illustrated by Frank Robbins (issues 5, 7, 8 and 9) and E.R.Cruz (10-12) never happened. But I enjoy those issues just as much as the O'Neil/Kaluta issues. <br /><br />Likewise, the O'Neil/McWilliams story JUSTICE INC in issue 1 is just as good as the Kirby/O'Neil stories in issues 2-4.<br /><br />In both cases, O'Neil's scripting gave the series consistency, despite the vast change in art, on both series.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7897120082101927069.post-37129231938240828632008-11-06T15:53:00.000-05:002008-11-06T15:53:00.000-05:00I still can't believe I posted so much about one a...I still can't believe I posted so much about one ad, but it is a great ad!
