Back then, I was a regular reader of the title since a little before issue #200, but I recall dropping it right after this Salem's Seven two-parter (and then came back like a shot when Byrne took over).<br />I couldn't have expressed it at the time, but I was really turned off by the characterization - esp. Reed as a complete jerk to everyone, but esp. Sue: the way he constantly puts her down, and even, as here, smacks her (!). Probably worse is the fact that Sue just takes it, in this sort of "my man knows what's best for me" fashion. So yeah, not Moench's best work.<br />On the other hand, I rather liked Sienkiewicz's art - admittedly, he's not a good fit with the FF, but it's still pretty nice.Edo Bosnarnoreply@blogger.com
