A review of Peter Milligan and Michael Allred’s X-Force is in today’s New York Times…
The heroes, as drawn by Mike Allred and inked by Laura Allred in bright, primary colors, are stiffly posed with few facial expressions (frowning anger, teary woundedness) — a parody of bad comic-book art whose ugliness becomes astute when combined with Milligan’s merciless view of humanity.
Yikes! I wonder how much his opinion of the art would change if the writer knew that the art was not meant to be a parody…
Nevertheless, it’s a very positive review, and will likely expose the comic to a lot of people who may really enjoy it and might not have otherwise know about it.
