That's the CW Quicksilver cover, right?

No that's #9.

 

[PhotoJones]

No that's #9.

No, #9 is the cluttered desk/bulletin board shot.

I'm so confused.

Sook has his own cover numbering wrong on his site. He's that lazy.

I don't even own these issues, either.

I was just too lazy to look for them. And they're literally about 7 feet away from me.

I didn't have to look for them. They're up here. *gently taps head*

You have a comic book collection in your head?

 

[PhotoJones]

You have a comic book collection in your head?

Yes. And it's bigger than yours.

 

[Darthphere]

Yes. And it's bigger than yours.

Well that explains a lot.

 

[PhotoJones]

I'm sure it does.

Calero did quite well on X-Factor when he came on, and now Koi Pham is doing pretty well, too. Pham strikes me as kind of a Coipel-lite.

Didn't Molly Hayes do the same thing?

Yes, but when Molly did it it was stupid and made her even lamer than she already was.

Calero's work is very good. And Pham's doing the art now? What happened to Pablo?

Pham is garbage dude.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Pham is garbage dude.

Why is that? His style's simple, clean, and effective. His panels could stand a little more depth, but he's a solid artist.

Garbage dude, garbage.

You're the worst.

Isn't it generally accepted that Darth has no taste?

Seriously, I think M is having a stroke in the last page:

I have no idea what you're talking about. Her face is a little wonky, but who cares? It's not like it's a poignant character moment or anything. I still dig the Kubert brothers and they're as guilty of slacking on background faces as anyone.

Yeah, nice. We're not talking about the Kubert brothers though are we? Don't try to deflect the argument Corp. Pham is crap, end of story. There's not a single person on here and in the X-Factor thread that likes that guy's art on this book.

That's a GREAT point.

 

[Darthphere]

It's all moot anyway. Raimondi is back next issue and we can finally get some quality art back on this title.

Pham's work isn't bad at all. I just don't think he's the right fit for the tone of the book. Pablo's work is more suited.
