Several years back, I shouted from the highest messageboards that Ed Brubaker and Steve Epting's Captain America would be the best comic on the stands. Of course, I was right.
I enjoyed the Millar and Hitch run, actually, but they both didn't get what makes the team special, and it wasn't as good as the great fill-in arcs by McDuffie and Pelletier. Dale Eaglesham looks to be the modern day definitive artist like Epting was for Cap. Look at the Kirby influence. Millar and Hitch tried too hard to be "modern", and a series like the FF could never do better than tapping into the grandeur and spectacle of the big world the FF have to explore. Eaglesham does that. I LOVE Alan Davis. One of the best ever FF artists, and my 2nd favorite current artist. It's good to see him doing covers, BUT I'd rather Eaglesham do his own!

Those preview pages at the end of select comics look incredible! Mark my words! THIS WILL BE THE BEST COMIC ON THE STANDS!!!
