"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I'm just glad when I hear about the odd bit of nice behavior from comics professionals, like the first time George Perez and Phil Jiminez met.

Did they make sweet love?

Jack Kirby was famous for being incredibly accessible to both fans and upcoming artists. Just an astoundingly generous man.

Art Crawl!!!

IC#4 gets mentioned in the New York Times . . . and why didn't I realize that Brad Meltzer of IC was the same guy who is involved with Jack and Bobby?

Also, DC has a list of IC-tie ins for other titles.

Art was very weird. Jean's looked like a million different things, but I had to just assume that was her.

Same here. In one shot she looked like Kitty from AXM. I was extremely confused, since UXM Kitty looks very much like the young teenager she's supposed to be.

True, plus the freckles are killing me. Did anyone else think her kiss with Bobby was just adorable? I'm starting to get old enough these days that I just think that sort of thng is head-patting cute. Which is better than the alternative, all things considered.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

This makes me giggle. Poor Kitty, trapped in eternal teenagerhood. Oh, she thought she was free and clear, but Pete Wisdom who?

We do not look at Pete Wisdom. We do not talk about Pete Wisdom. We pretend he is not there.

Nope, they met at a con panel or presentation. Perez opened his arms, yelled "Son!" and Jiminez ran and hugged him yelling "Dad!" Quite the chuckle for people who are fans of their similar drawing styles on Teen Titans and Wonder Woman.

I meant she looks like the age she is presented as in UXM, not some mythical ideal age for her. Unlike the 14 year-old (albeit with mutton chops) Wolverine looked like in Ultimate Nightmare. Of course the Gameboy didn't help any.

But it does seem to be the mythical ideal age. Not that any of them match our earth years, but at least most others get to grow up (I swear Mirage looks way older than Kitty, in the main continuity), or have already reached the magical unchanging post-pubertal age.
