The Bullpen

I feel the same way I do about Adi Granov that I do about Simone Bianchi.  As a cover/pin-up artist, they're unbeatable, but their interiors always leave me wanting more.  On the flip side, someone like Renato Guedes who has a very similar style, I don't know what it is, but he puts a lot of life into his work where I think Granov and Bianchi are very... stiff.

Personally, I think Bianchi was fine before he hit the "big-time".  His work on Shining Knight for DC was excellent, but then once Marvel scooped him up and threw the "Young Guns" label on him, his art lost some undefinable quality that made him a top-tier artist in the first place.

Love, love, LOVE the build-up and time David took to explain where to find information on the songs played at the end of episodes, then he didn't play a song at the end of the episode!  Genius.  Always leave them wanting more, my friend.

Considering my somber closing note, I didn't feel it appropriate to play some upbeat tune or a sappy farewell song.

The whole music bit was a response to an email.  They all came crashing together at the end there.

I've been reading some of the Shining Knight stuff and I'll agree with you.  The only different factor I can think of is the colorist.

& david did you get my reply to your message bout my voicemail?

Yes, sir, I did.  I think I'm going to run it anyway, because you throw some good comments out there and some positive vibes overall.  I'll probably intro it so I can squash any worry.

And I'm going to have to listen to the beginning of the show again.  This isn't the first time it's been said that I was having fun at the start.
