Reload previews!

Here are the two first issues of the reload previews for both New #155 and Uncanny #442. ComiX-Fan has the pencils for the first four pages of the all-new all-different Excalibur that all of this ties in with, but the dirty beggers won't let me link to them directly, so you'll all have to go check them out over there.

Previews!

I don't see why they would so uncerimoniously dump Igor Kordey in favor of this art, but I guess we'll wait and see how it turns out when inked and colored.

Thank you Crawler

I couldn't make the linky work *hides head in shame*
I *ahem* think that perhaps the thing with Kordey was more ideological/political than a matter of quality...who cares if the art sucks or not ???

I think Aaron's art is pretty nice, but i agree with C, the way igor was dropped was really harsh and while Aaron's art is nice and all, i think the gritty feel of Igor's art may have been more suited to the tone of the story... oh, well.

... dammit... why are Comics Continuum's scans always so hard to read... *squints*

It was sad how Igor was dropped. Imagine seeing someone else's art on the book you're working on. I would be floored if it was me.

*sigh* Perhaps that's the way Marvel is operating now. The artist or writer is the last to know.

Of course that could be with any job really.

Poor Kordey. I wasn't a huge fan of hs, but he was really treated like a fool.

BTW, why can they never get Rogue's eye color consistent? The cover showed her eyes blue again. They did the same with Betsy during X-Treme.
