I like Mike Leeke. Is he doing anything now or did he drop out of comics like a lot of Valiant creators?

Wow, you can hire Jim Lee do draw your cover for seven bucks? I can't even get lunch ata fast-food frestaurant for seven bucks! Seriously, he could raise his rates. I'd pay up to $12 for an original piece of Jim Lee art.

I dunno, I saw a Van Damme (?) film and they totally used Kick Boxing to kill people!

They look a TON alike.

That's why I guess Superstar has the stubble - otherwise, no one would be able to tell them apart.

And as for the violence thing, I meant to write LETHAL violence.

Is it just me, or do Wipeout and Superstar look very similar?

Thanks, Lee!

I THOUGHT there was some story about that.

The Jim Lee story was told in a letter col, I believe. The then head of Valiant , Steve Massarsky (sp?) was an ex-Entertainment lawyer and gave Lee front-row U2 tickets in exchange for the cover.

I'm enjoying this series, Brian. How about setting your sights a decade earlier and giving us an Alphabet of Cool for Eclipse, that company that brought you every comic "from Aztec Ace to Zot!"

I think the Jim Lee favor was called in by Abraham and his two friends, George Washington and George Washington.
