Love to finally see this page with the copy. We have known about this one for a long time, but it's nice to finally see it drop. With the exception of the Wolverine history sneak peek yesterday, I don't think there are any sneak peaks left from Elsewhen.
That page is beautiful. I had to put on a sweater to continue looking at it.
And I know where that foreground is. It's in Chagrin Falls, Ohio. I can drive you to the very place... and it's beautiful in fact!
However, in Ohio, we don't have a very good view of the Rockies. On the other hand, I doubt that my scene of that is the only one in the US or Canada... but I have a real life link to your art and it's delightful.
That's lovely-- I like the texturing of the pines especially, it evokes the feel of a northern pine forest. The log cabin is terrific too. Heck, for me, this page is all about textures. Way to go!
GORGEOUS splash! That title has somewhat of a Star Trek vibe.
Also, the N'agarai storyline would have taken 6-8 issues of contemporary comics to resolve instead of just a hair over 1 issue for you. Then again, I feel like every issue so far has had about four issues worth of material packed in!
I've said it before, I feel like I'm twelve years old everytime I read this. Thank you.

Mr. Bryne: There is something about your artistic eye, like Rockwell or Gruger before him, that captures the grace and beauty of a thing with minimal flourish. It's a joy to come here, nearly every day, and see something new and beautiful.

Back in the day we’d talk in amazement about the way Jack Kirby would “throw away” in ONE PANEL ideas that could feed we mere mortals for MONTHS.
While I have never reached Jack’s Olympian levels, I do try to get as much into an issue as possible. (NEXT MEN was one place where I deliberately set aside this approach and let the stories “meander” at their own pace.)
