[The Quiet Councilor]

Liu and Takeda would have been here

That’s how you get a top selling Psylocke book. My brain would melt. Hope you’re reading Monstress!

Liu and Takeda would have been here. Hill has good concepts but the Kiwanna is better then everyon via nerfing x23 and cable(who fills the same role as a girl in a shonen manga) isnt working. If the power dynamic between them was better I think it would have been better

Kwannon isn't a master to cable or Laura. Going solo would be better.

Liu and Takeda? that would be perfect, they made great work on Laura.

Thank God Nathan isn't my kid. I'd want a refund.

Too bad Marvel gave Takeda the boot a while back, saying her style is too “manga”. I would have liked to have seen her version of Psylocke. And I know Liu would make Psylocke more than a walking fortune cookie.

Kwannon lecturing Laura about the need to pay attention to the enemy is pretty much, in a nut shell, what’s wrong with that whole relationship. Like that would ever actually happen in any other circumstance other than Hill’s need to force Kwannon into a mentor role for Laura with absurd “teaching moments”, oh and let’s not forget the cheesy tired dialogue about rage and generic statements about not having to hide her true self. Everything about that is bad, especially when Hill expects us to believe the assassin trained from birth and read The Art Of War as a bed time story as a child needs to be told to pay attention to the enemy, and sloppily almost kills a child.

Not crazy about the internal art, but I do love that cover. Story is still not hooking me either. I agree that so far the best parts were Kwannon interacting with Mags and Sinister.

I doubt that was it considering a lot of their talent are manga-influenced (like Ramos and the guy on Venom).

Marvel were most likely being prudes so she left. Remember the hentai tentacles.

Her particular style is rather labor intensive, and she's already committed to Monstress.

Liu confirms it in an interview.

“Sana had gone through a similar journey, but in the opposite direction. After X-23, she couldn’t get work at Marvel or DC. They basically told her that her style was “too manga.” There was no room for her. So she started doing other things: designing, working for a gaming company, teaching. She thought, maybe, she wouldn’t ever do comics again.”

Well that's pretty horrible.

I really must stop thinking "they'd never be that stupid", when clearly they would.

Too expensive. Erica Henderson is cheaper.

No bad, but yes, Manga style, it isn't even subtle…

[Londo Bellian]

TOO MANGA? What, does Marvel perceive Gurihiru artwork in turn as refreshingly TOO AME-COMI?

[Triniking1234]

Yes but the irony is that manga sells.
