...draws cleanly too. The black and white images are "classically" representational and nicely detailed. You could almost count the hairs in Odysseus' beard. Shanower generally eschews experimentation except during a cartoony flashback, and an occasional toying with event's sequence in time. Comix aesthetes may therefore snuff at its mainstream approach, but on the other hand, you don't need a Ph.D. in comix linguistics to appreciate...

He came back with his hands sliced to ribbons and stories of how he fell off the mountain three times. But my brother...
...cartoonist who occasionally contributes to the print arm of this Website, has a clunky, chunky drawing style which gains in uniqueness what it loses in verisimilitude. Almost cubist, the flat, black and white images include characters that always stand with their body facing you but their face in profile, except for the eyes, which sit on one side together. Mostly the images are in service to the text, which tends to bear down on them, overwhelming them. Rall likes words...
