I like your casting choice. Definitely not a "pretty boy" hero and refreshing in that sense.

I would say the way you drew Wolverine (in costume mainly) in the 70's/80's made his look a bit sleeker and toned. In ELSEWHEN we are getting more of this rough edge.

Great storytelling in these past few issues.

I've noticing more grey on the page scans in the last two pages.  Is that intentional?  Like a faux sepia tone to evoke early 20th century photography?

Q4JB: This page-by-page publishing has led to you seeing page-by-page responses. How do you like this vs. getting all the responses after the finished book is released?

To be honest, I’m not aware of any real difference.

“Wait for the next issue!” Is replaced by “Wait for the next page!” is about it.

JB: question from my wife, an artist, on the outdoor scene."Did you use an eraser to make the snow on the trees?" We like that image very much!

While I have, in recent years, made more and more of a drawing tool out of my electric eraser (see some of the energy effects around Shaman), the forest scenes are just old fashioned knowing when to stop!

Unless you will reveal it in the pages to come, may I ask how old he is supposed to be in these two pages?

•••

About six. Figure him to have been born circa 1910.

I'd be curious whether the Spanish flu was more than a sniffle for him (can't recall whether his healing factor was something he always had or exactly how he came to get it.)

If he's a mutant, it shouldn't kick in until puberty, which should be a few years before the the Spanish Flu. < id="protanopia"> < id="deuteranopia"> < id="tritanopia">

JB said: A recurring problem in the marketplace is the over abundance
of fans who dismiss “all-ages” as meaning juvenile. But as you note
those Lee/Kirby/Ditko early days were “all-ages”—something for
everyone.
Compare the death of Logan’s mother to Uncle Ben, or across the
street, the Waynes.
——————————-
Which is why I said in the superman bi-sexual thread that the topic
could be covered by romance rather than sex.
Which comics did with heterosexual couples for decades.

Don’t dismiss a topic, and don’t think you have to go to the nth degree,
figure out how to deal with it in an all ages manner.
Something a lot of current writers cannot fathom.
