I like the monster. (I assume it's a 'Flagg goes bitey' moment. Doesn't look much like how I imagined, but it's an interesting image. Kind of like a cross between a man and a Dune sandworm...)

That picture of the old lady looks way too masculine. Heh. Come to think of it Flagg looks rather effeminate!

Quite a striking image though.

I haven't been buying The Stand comics, but that's a great picture. I thought the face might be a woman before, erm, scrolling down. I assume it's that feral kid...

Nice picture, but I find all those 'dramatic' poses amusing. It's like "Hey look at us! We're doing the robot!" (Ok comic actions tend to be exaggerated to make the point, but even so...)

Does it compare well with the book?

I've kept away from them for the time being. Partly, due to finance, partly cos I've got the book. I also figured I could always get the GN if I changed my mind.

I'm still sorely tempted though,...

Does it have anything in way of extras? Apart from page sketches, I mean.

A couple more pages from Captain Trips issue 1 here.

Yeah. Think I might do the same. I don't know if there are extras or not, but I imagine there'll be a review on Liljas's site. If extras are mentioned there, then I might go the individual issue...

Very nice. Great art.

Hee hee! Sounds like that guy could do with a throat lozenge.

'Comic' is accurate on a per issue basis. (I noticed they use the term 'Graphic Novels' for each of the Heroes comics online, which isn't correct. It's as if people are worried it'll be associated...

Nice surprise indeed.

I noticed a spelling mistake on the last page panel 3 though. Hee, hee.

I like the stringy bits. :beat:

Wonderful.

From the sketchbook, I thought each cover would show a different character, part of one large picture that can be seen when laying them side by side.

I guess that must be variants.

More snot than I would have expected even from Captain Trips, but certainly effective. And wonderful art, even if a horrific subject matter.

I had one sent to me with the Almanac! I didn't ask for it, I didn't even know it was available free in the UK, so I was nicely surprised.

As I've read The Stand I'm in 2 minds about getting the...

Those pictures are pretty close to how I imagined them, especially Frannie.

I wasn't all that keen on her in the book mind you, but seeing her physically (sort of) shows her in a whole new light...

I actually thought he might be doing the Stand stuff in the time period he was away in the Dark Tower books. Can't tell for sure of course but it fits in well with... his appearance in the emerald...
