Jesse, I guess very few people have the speed and tenacity of George Perez who was famous for his rapid pencils on Avengers. He didn't have any trouble keeping up on Crisis on Infinite Earths. But in fairness to Phil Jiminez I guess, per that article you provided, the plan was to have Perez and Ordway fill in on certain segments. Interesting creative approach. It just didn't work for me but I'll give it another read with this perspective in mind.
How many are going to pick up American Way based on Sam's review? If it's still at the lcs next week I will.

Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

Great reviews, but I'm going to nitpick on X-Factor.
Rictor is the depowered mutant in the group. Rusty is another character that appeared in the original X-Factor, but this isn't him.

Beav, no loss from my point of view. Though b_c disagrees, check out my post on this page:

Regardless of how short the fight was between the supermen, I loved the near-perfect recreation of the Action comics 1 cover.

RichBamf, totally agree on the Action #1 cover scene (as noted in my review)! What a great touch.

WE'll agree to disagree on this one then.
the only good thing about ms marvel was the variant MIchael Turner cover.

It was all there, the crushed hood, the light flying off, Superman's pose and cape.The only touch missing was the wheel flying off (although it would have hit the recently deceased Lois in the face, so it's probably for the best!)
It was such a poignant little touch and just shows what class DC have shown with this project IMO
