I'm not familiar with it, but I'm putting it on my list... if I can find that pencil...
Trio let you down? I can understand that; a rushed-feeling rip on Fantastic Four. Mostly battle, little characterisation.

It's more sci-fi than superhero.
There's a bit of opinion about it at http://www.bleedingcool.com/2013/01/...bert-heinlein/
I thought Trio was 'okay'.Quote:

Anyone read Labrats back when that came out? Has he gotten better again since? I always loved his art style, but his writing can be so hit or miss sometimes.
I missed that one, too. :(

Don't worry, if you're referring to Labrats, you didn't miss much. No characterization. Just cynical shock value concept mixed with wacky visual settings. I hadn't really been seeking out Byrne's work since, personally, but if his new stuff is any good, I might check it out.Quote:
