Too similar. They "dumbed down" Flint's appearance too much for my liking.

Thinking more and more about this, I have to say I'm quicker to reject a storyline if the artwork looks lazy or outright bad. If the art engages me, it sets the wheels spinning well enough that my mind can overwrite some gaps in the storytelling.

Same here. After all, comics is primarily a visual medium.

Currently re-reading the Devil's Due series. It's a hell of a lot more fun than anything IDW has produced.

i dont like either.
the best comic was chuckles' comic mini. i dont think the company of that book deserves the credit. ddp was junk. killing off characters for their banal new ones. idw is no good, because i hate that company for other reasons - and i do not have fealty sworn to larry hama. i literally dont care who writes gijoe. |

if they had to kill off anyone, they should have killed off Zarana instead of Lady Jaye and focused on Zandar's development after the loss of his twin.
I've never read the Mike Costa IDW comics, but I've heard he handled Tomax & Xamot amazingly well. I'd have loved to see him write Zarana & Zandar.

What I'd really like to see is the bond between Zarana & Zandar explored and deepened, as well as their private twin language. Hopefully the new publisher goes this route. It's about time. See? I'm cautiously optimistic, but based on past media, it's probably not going to happen. And people wonder why I'm so pessimistic.

Both are medicore writing with some decent artwork here and there,
But I’d have to inch it for DDP. Barely. Both are forgettable. The old Hama 1980’s was the ones to read. Well that and what I’ve been working on behind the scenes.
