I never knew hitting a kid with a bike sounded like that. Chilling! <BR/><BR/>One other thing--that "bird beaked demon" on page 2 looks very familiar--it seems to be a design that crops up again and again. I know a member of the Green Lantern Corps looks a lot like that, and it seems to me I've seen the basic design elsewhere too. Anyone with more knowledge than I know its origin? Was it an Everett creation, or just something that haunts the dreams of comic artists through history?The Vicar of VHShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06832137990485130735noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-983171239671909762.post-50250532266546338352008-05-04T07:44:00.000-05:002008-05-04T07:44:00.000-05:00WOW TOTAL DREAM TEAM!
