"Funny" thing -- IDW promised me an advance copy weeks ago, and then the gremlins got into the game.

Last week they said last week. Yesterday they said today. UPS says tomorrow.

So those of you who have your copies, you have them before I do!

JB, do you recall what you were using to ink the earlier FF issues?  Some of the figures are relatively small and yet you were able to still get details in the faces and keep them on character.

It's a gorgeous book! Closest I'll come to owning the original art from JB's FF
run--so totally worth it!

My copy DID come today, after all. A very handsomely produced package.

Now, gotta keep nudging that X-MEN volume along. . .

Rapidograph pens on the early stuff.

Speaking of the inks, I was pleased to note the WHAT IF? is not as bad as I remembered. I guess I was -- and still am -- just disappointed we were unable to get Joe Sinnott.

I got mine today and it is a thing of beauty. Now I see what everyone has been talking about. These artist editions are unbelievable, IDW has out done themselves with these books.

After looking at my copy I wish IDW and DC could get together. I would love to see JB's Superman and OMAC in this format.

Truly awesome job IDW and Chris.

Thank you!
