Good vibes heading your way on that submission.

Thanks. I'm thinking 9.8's, because CGC protects the 9.9/10 grades a lot. One of them is as nice as my 9.9, but you just never know. Hopefully, the graders will have good lunches the day they grade them. It might just be wishful thinking on my part. I'll know a 10 when I see it. They stand out. It's just impossible to find them. One day...

10s are only handed out when the graders "got some" last night.

He's doomed, then.

You're probably right. I need to send some strippers on the right day.

[B-Smooth]

Just got 3 more copies. No potential 10's.

[B-Smooth]

I'm buying more skeleton covers. Just sayin'.

I am hearing there is some sort of asventurers graphic novel thats an original story, is that correct? Can anybody fill me in? Im tring to find the issues ive missed over the years

 

Thanks

[B-Smooth]

Never heard of it. Of course, I'm all up on that when it shows up.

[Bronty]

Ok. I may have my facts wrong. Maybe there is an original backup story in the graphic novel or something?

[Bronty]

I am hearing that perhaps some (all?) of the Peter Hsu art from before Kent Burles came on, they had Burles re-do for the graphic novel.

 

I ordered a graphic novel online so I will post more about this when I know more, but it appears the graphic novel, while it tells the book one story, isn't strictly a reprint and has some new art.

[B-Smooth]

I hope they don't redo the art. Blasphemy! It's not that I don't like Burles's art, it's just that the first issue belongs to Hsu, and should remain that way.

[Bronty]

those graphic novels were published right after the series completed, so to the extent it was done, it was done 22 years ago. I guess I will find out soon unless somebody pipes up. I seem to be doing a good job of killing this thread

 

FWIW, the credits here list Burles as the sole artist: http://www.mycomicshop.com/search?TID=22010541

 

although who knows how accurate they are.

[Bronty]

I always thought that, much as I like Hsu's art, Burles was the far better artist. Thoughts? As a Cdn I am proud that both of them are fellow Cdns though as this really is in my top ten 1980s indie comics. Between that and McFarlane and Byrne we've got the market cornered If only we had that jack kirby fella on our team

This is the first time I have ever wanted to punch you in the face.

[Bronty]

Come on now Fingh.

 

Look objectively at the splash I posted of Burles', vs the artwork in adventurers 1 (Hsu's only issue). There's no comparison.

 

The covers are tough to guage as most of them were joint efforts.

[Bronty]

I mean... how's this for a splash page? he's just a better artist than Hsu IMO (much as I like Hsu)
