Robot Man Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 I will say this about Quality. Covers (as a whole) are just OK, the interior art is usually excellent. But the stories are over all pretty boring to me. Now the Spirit is an exception, as I would say maybe Plastic Man. Stories and art are just off the hook. To be fair though, most GA "men in tights" books are pretty standard. Maybe I'm just jaded because I've been reading funny books for 50 years...

I see your point about the men-in-tights, quite a few of the Quality characters just blend together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know it can't be Charlton Heston, cuz his acting was about as dynamic as a wooden prop chariot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zolnerowich Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 Adding to the Quality of this thread, with a red bee, a green fish, yellow arm floaties, and pink bubbles. Lots of pink bubbles. Not exactly the Mile High. Maybe more like Fifty-Feet High? Happy that I fine-ly had time to post this. gino2paulus2 and Cat-Man_America 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
