When this comic first came out, I was sure it was an homage to Tim Curry's character in a low budget Cohen brothers 1988 movie called "Pass The Ammo".

:D

Meaning they pay you in cash and you in turn hand it right back to them for comics? :wink:

Not to speak ill of the deceased, but I never could stand Turner's art. Not my cup of tea I guess.

If we ever discover alien life for real I'd be satisified with them looking like her. :D
But after watching V I don't think I'd be so quick to get involved with them. :wink:

Matt Wagner's Batman covers were really good, as were some of those Grendels. Can't think of the numbers though.

There's the Miller DD cover to with all of those arrows, or the one with him all Dirty Harry, No More Mr Nice Guy.
