I really like your torch of Liberty.

The Liberty Legion was in Roy Thomas' Invaders at Marvel. and Red(huh-bird?-hawk?-somethingelse?) was too in Roy Thomas' X-Men. The story were angel find a city in the clouds or something like that.

They're not my favorite team but I like your art.

I'm not sure...

I was a fan of Roy Thomas's All Star Squadron. But I like the big ones like Captain America, Namor, Human Torch, Batman and co. The original Jsa was a great team but I mostly know them by Roy's All Star Squadron and Infinity inc.

And the issue of Roger Stern/John Byrne Captain America in England with the olds Union Jack and Spitfire against Baron Blood is my favorite of their short run. Maybe my favorite Captain America story ever. (the other ones being the Steve Englehart/Sal Buscema Secret Empire/Watergate arc.+the rest of Roger/John run)

James - I didn't think it was all that bad.  I was just kinda joking as well.  Yeah, your right, why work when you can get -others- to do it for you?

Love your drawings.  Good work.  Works out that you're feeling "sick" today so you can finish coloring them.

My favorite Cap was JB's whole run.  That Baron Blood story sticks out in my mind all the time.

As you say "across the pond" - cheers!

Good to hear, that is precisely the idea behind WPD. It had a similar effect
on me.
