    Colours by Sonia Oback, according to his tweet.

    I’ll never like covering his face (and I’m in mourning for the beard!) but the costume works very well.
    Wonder when we will get any more information on this series?

    Its Sonia Oback I believe and she is one of the best colorists during Extinction Era for me. She collaborated with Mike Choi and Mico Suayan making some of the badass covers and interiors. The art was the only highlight for me during Black Ops X-Force days.

    Thanks for the correction, I’ll amend my post. A good colourist can make or break art.

    Mike Choi + Sonia Oback was a golden combo back then, their X-Force and Uncanny X-Men issues were drool-worthy.

    We really went from this, straight into Remender and Opena. That was such an amazing stretch for the X-Force title both in terms of writing and art. Probably never get something like that again in our lifetimes lol.
    You brought back Wolverine

    The CBR Community Standards a.k.a how to get along.

    From Choi/Oback to Opena/White I don't think anyone could complain though. X-force fans ATE.
    We're lucky to have Marte Gracia too.

    Don't forget to toss Clayton Crain's work in there, too. He did some great stuff on that run, too.

    Indeed!

    His clean and beautiful style combined with Oback colors greatly contrasts Clayton Crain's deformed and almost indistinguishable dark pages.

    It's unfortunate Choi disappeared from Marvel comics.

    That whole streak of X-Force's was amazing. Going from Kyle, Yost, Crain, Choi and Oback to Remender, Opena, Noto and White was just unbelievable.

    Do these things have the stats and power ratings on the back like the OG cards did?
