Cover by: Michael Allred
I find it funny how your tastes can change on both story and art in comics. I use to very much be into the more realistic art coming out for comics. But recently I have really been getting into the different styles of art, some of my favourite artists at the moment being, Becky Cloonan, Ming Doyle, Declan Shalvey, Nic Klein and of course Michael Allred. It is sad to say this but FF is my first real insight into the work of Michael Allred and I love it. This cover is a testament to why, his style brings a pop arty comic feel. and the use of speech bubbles on the cover is fantatsic "How do we get within Clobberin' range?" made me laugh out loud, whether this was a collaboration between both the writer and artist I am not sure. The split of two dimensions is produced with great results, the bad guys on one side laying a trap and the heroes flying across to the other even though they know it is a trap! This really is a great, fun cover and that is why it is my cover of the week.
