It was a lovely, gem-like series that mixed humor and compassion and really, really cool art. I think the biggest problem with 'Mazing Man is that he was published by DC. It just didn't generate the sales required to keep a DC book going. If it had been published by Eclipse or Renegade it would have been a hit for them. I was a HUGE fan of 'Mazing Man.

How did he get it to...uhm...jump the gap on his man-cleavage? It doesn't follow the contours of his frighteningly malformed pecs at all. Or are those skin-colored decorator's pillows? Either way, I can see why the scar is detaching itself and trying to escape... It's too bad, because it's a decent cover concept, and his head and the background look alright.

That's a german tank with a very visible iron cross at the front! Can't say which is the model. Looks like a russian KV-2, but it might be intended as an early model Panzer IV. It's badly drawn anyway and the whole cover is a far cry from the best DC war comics covers! Best, Hunter (Pedro Bouça) That's not the Haunted Tank in that cover!

I feel better. Has Comedian shown up yet? He wasn't on my list but I think he is worthy (and would be the only character to show up who never made a single appearance outside of flashbacks).

His relationship with Morpheus was one of the really moving elements in Sandman, especially in the last two volumes. By the way, Dr. Manhattan made the list quite a while back - he was #75.

I suppose I could see that if we only count his appearances in Crisis and DCCP. Johns' handling of this character has been atrocious--it would have been FAR better to leave this character in limbo.

I'm pretty sure that's a Russian tank, though I'm not sure why a G.I. is shooting at it.
