PREVIEW: Age of Apocalypse, #1

I feel you on the art though. We used to laugh at Roger Cruz' blatant ripoff of Mad!..

Haha! Yeah, it was pretty bad back in the day. But at least Cruz did put in the work to improve:

Count me squarely in the Joe Mad camp. He is the main reason I purchased that god awful Ultimates vol. 3

Is that Roger Cruz art? It looks exactly like Salvador Larocca's style. Does he only ever copy other pencillers' styles?

I don't care if I'm the only one but i LOVE JOE MAD'S art! Still to this day. He draws an awesome Rogue and he gets major points from me. He's one of my top artist that I I really like. He's waaaaaay better than some of the stuff I have to deal with especially artists nowadays trying to draw Rogue. Just my opinion tho

I love JOE MAD'S art too. His Gamit was always dangerous and mysterious.

Uh... not the case at all. Go back and pick up those comics. Easily the best thing ever done with the O5

Joe Mad's style was not right for the X-Men, it is much too manga-ish.
