Is it just me or does his artwork look a little raw? :?

Art looks about the same as everything else he's drawn in the past decade (which is a good thing). He's also writing Spiderman: With Great Power (drawn by Tony Harris) which will deal with Peter's time as a celebrity before Uncle Ben's death. That looks good too.

interesting, thanks for the info. I'll definitely buy this, but I'm a little disappointed that he's finally writing and drawing a new series and it sounds real similar to Stray Bullets. I would love to see him do more sci-fi/fantasy work, but what does he care what I think :P

edit: Anyone else find it interesting that Shooter and Lapham are both working for DC now?? REUNION :thumb:

I wonder if Shooter and Lapham might work on an issue of Legion, even if it was just a sequence. Something "VALIANT" could occur. Of course, maybe I just need more sleep.

sounds like a stray bullets arc. i wish he had just kept with that instead. and had done that sci-fi book he was working on.

Although I loved seeing Bob Hall on Harbinger, if only for eight pages, I think it would have been AMAZING to see Lapham. But, I'll take Hall, who did, imo, an outstanding job. The man has only gotten better and, besides Ryder, I think that those pages in the Harby HC prove that Rubenstein can certainly ink Hall's work correctly. But, I might have to check this out just to see what Lapham is up to these days.
