Well, I looked at the preview. Couldn`t resist. JB`s Next Men looks better then ever. Can`t wait to read and see the rest.

I think Nathan does look different, and not just because he doesn't have his special glasses or a ponytail. His face is rounder and more convex than before. It's easy for me to notice because he's my favourite Next Man. Bring back square-jawed Nathan! :-)

I think they all look slightly different, but I actually like it as that makes them look younger and their supposed ages - I always though that Nathan and Beth sometimes looked too old in the previous issues. I mean they're somewhere between 17 and 21, not in their mid-late 20s, right?

Also, to me, the figure work seems much more structured and solid than previously, by this I mean that the figure drawing displays more weight and volume than before.

Hm! I established Jazz as having been born in 1975, which would put her well into her 20s when the original series took place. And she was on the young end of the group, with only Danny being younger.

(This is one of the odd aspects of bringing the Next Men back -- the series was originally set in an imaginary Future, now I guess it's set in an imaginary Past!)

PS: should I call 911 before entering my LCS on Wednesday? (Actually the tel n° is 17 in France)

They still do the 17 in France.

I am going to resist the temptations of the preview. I have waited for so long that I can really wait and have the surprise coming.

Interesting...for some reason, I had it in my head that Jazz was the oldest. Not sure why.
