* I'll reserve judgment until I have the thing in my hands, but my initial reaction to the new colouring of Marvel's Miracleman reprints is far from positive. CBR has a look, and there's a better comparison here. What I would have preferred is a straight-on scan of the Eclipse comics, primitive '80s colouring and all. I hate modern superhero comics colouring -- I've said before, it doesn't even register as comics to my eyes -- and I'm disappointed in how these new pages look, at least online and in low-rez.
* I also hate the lettering. That computerized font detracts from the art rather than seeming like an organic part of the page, as the original lettering does. Weird kerning going on in spots, too. God damn it, Marvel.
* This John Byrne Star Trek "photonovel" (available in comic shops today) looks pretty faithful. I'll give it a look.
