Giant Size X-men: Tribute to Wein and Cockrum

[Havok83]

Anyone get this? Its a remake of GSX so if you've read that book, then you know the classic story.

I didnt realize it was going to be a complete recreation of GSX panel for panel but it was and worked quite well. The art was gorgeous and they kept the text. Here are some comparison shots

The facial expressions and intensity of the fights from Cockrum are just waaaayyyy better.

I just loved how Brooks drew this splash page....

I won't get my issue until next week.

i prefer the original Cockrum art.

It certainly shows how skilful and talented Dave was, particularly the emotion in that scene with Polaris in the rain.

[H-E-D]

Pointless, but pretty.

i prefer the original Cockrum art.

While modern coloring is obviously superior in capabilities, in terms of actual lines, Cockrum's work really stands the test of time. Some of these artists should be ashamed of themselves.

I really hope the MCU adapts this story for their X-Men and that Len and Dave's wives get a cut. This story holds up well.

i prefer the original Cockrum art.

Yeah I'm with you on this.
