Vol. 1, issue 73 comes to mind as yet another example of John Calimee's mostly forgettable run on Alpha.
I think someone like Nick Bradshaw could take this cover and make it pop.

This cover has a great dynamic layout. Yes, Calimee's illustration skills weren't yet up to par but there are far worse AF covers than this.

Numerous covers by Tom Morgan and Bruce Patterson were crappy and, from cover to cover, AF #106 (Northstar's coming out) was hideous.

I agree with Zephyr that Calimee's layouts were very good.
And I'd call his art a lot of things - but forgettable is not one of them. (Even if I remember it for all the wrong reasons!)
Mekko - what's your answer?
I'd like to see volume 5 #2 in colour someday. The artwork is fine, but when everything is so orange that you can't even see Sasquatch when he's in plain sight, something's wrong.
