At my current age, I am soooo digging this issue. What about that last panel... it's about to hit the fan! 

Well of course the 3rd panel with Wolverine is out of this world cool! 

THANKS!!!!!!!

You know that horrible, horrible phrase 'You raped my childhood'?

This is the exact opposite (sorry).

Ah! “Circular Cliffhanger”!!! Now it makes sense! Very smart!

This has been a great experience! Fun watching this unfold. Hope to see another one in the future!

Only one more page...
This has been a great six weeks and I didn't realize how much I missed comics until this thread. However, I know the comics that will satiate my renewed sense of wonder can usually only be found in the $1 bins. Thanks again JB for taking the time to practice and letting us in on it. Any chance some of these pages will be up for sale in Boston? =)

Just brilliant! That's all.

I was in the "get someone new to ink this" camp, but,
I've changed my mind.

I think Terry SHOULD ink this, and consciously ink it
in his X-Men era style. Zips. Fine line Rapidiographs.
Charcoal clouds, etc.

I know it doesn't fit the story as well as it would a
Space Opera, but, the work would be even more Historic.

That said, even if it stays in pencil, it will have
been one of the great reading moments in my life.
These pages have widened my eyes more than anything
since Joelle Jones and Javier Fernandez.

I'd agree that Austin (or Austin-esque) inks are the way to go.  Someone please (PLEASE) correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think there's any kind of mechanical tones available any more, at least not in the States.  Possibly they may still make and sell in Japan, where there'd be more of  a market for them.

But, yeah: this is all historically awesome.  Thanks, JB.
