Can't believe when this originally came out I was dead set against it.

"The art work is just bad." I said.

Yeah right. Bill Sienkiewicz is a master.

Effective ad too.

Still don't like Sienkiewicz graphic style, other than that, cartoony/ realist, as long as it match the story and characters.

For me the question is whether the artist can tell the story or not. Other wise the artistic style is a moot point. We are taliking about comics, not just drawinings on a paper.

Other than that, I guess my style of preferencehas to do with the story and the characters involved.

Sienkiewicz is an ICBM. Marvel just didn�t know where to point him at, at the time.

New Mutants? C�mon...

Luckily, Frank Miller came to the rescue.
