And the roll calls must go back to the Golden Age days of All-Star Comics, yes?<br /><br />Kashif, I'm going through my experimental period. Emphasis on the mental.<br /><br />Rob, you're right, Sensor Girl's costume was originally blank in the eye department - sorta Spider-Mannish, and all-round sensational:<br /><br />http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/0/05/Sensor_Girl.jpg<br /><br />I could see them trying something totally new, but tinkering with this? That tacky tiara, for starters - DC may as well have put a trash can on her royal noggin.<br /><br />And I agree, Jeckie should know what's going on at least as soon as Brin. I let it go, assuming this was meant to be his spotlight scene. And Paul Levitz made a rod for his own back with the change from Queen Projectra to Sensor Girl - her power to 'see through the illusions of the universe' sounds awesome, but what the heck does it mean? What can she really do? It's no wonder writers falls back on the still-there illusion powers.Martin Grayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09574149543260175962noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6392489189136721402.post-55296124542856091792010-09-24T16:54:36.713+01:002010-09-24T16:54:36.713+01:00Sensor Girl's costume is awful, I agree. The o...Sensor Girl's costume is awful, I agree. The original Sensor Girl outfit worked, but this reworking of it (to show a more skin like the old Projectra costume, and did she have eye-hols before?) just makes it awful. I like some of the other reworked costumes, though -- particularly Cos, Tasmia and Vi. I'd like to see something a little more distinct on Cham, though. <br /><br />The idea that Earth-Man is being mind-controlled/behavior modified? That's awesome, and totally in Brainy's wheelhouse. "...since I put on this ring," indeed.<br /><br />I really like Cinar's pencilling, but every now and then it seems like he skips or downplays a plot element. For instance, the shift from the splash page of Senseor Girl seeing Earthforce (and shouldn't she have sensed them from miles away? Long before Timber Wolf?) to the next scene at the crash site, where Gim shout's "Jeckie's down!" and we see a little explosion off in the corner seemed abrupt. Especially since the bomb, as Gim describes it on the next page, sounds pretty cool. Wouldn't it be better to see that happen, rather than it being described after-the-fact? <br /><br />Then again, that could easily be a script issue more than an art one.Rob S.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07331286524477806963noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6392489189136721402.post-29560165392211087282010-09-24T10:29:05.600+01:002010-09-24T10:29:05.600+01:00Great review, can't wait get the issue.

I just wish we could get those nasty ribbed pieces off their costumes...and those tacky, bulky belts. There was little to nothing wrong with their costumes - why change them?
