I met with Dave last Saturday at McDo, Greenbelt. Had to get some scripts and artwork from him. I showed him the art for HORUS #5, illustrated by Clint, a high school teacher from Batangas and an aspiring comic book artist. Well, for a newbie, his stuff looks great! Dave and Carl liked what he did for HORUS.

And after a long while, got to talk to Dave about comic books again. Said that he wasn’t blown away with Grant’s first issue in X-MEN and he compares this with how Grant started on JLA, AZTEK, and his run as writer of THE FLASH. Still, Dave said, the dialog was trademark Grant. His theory on Ms. Nova is that she’s Prof.X’s evil twin sisters. Considering that Grant recognizes X-MEN is one big soap opera, what could be more soap opera-ish than introducing an evil twin?

Makes sense to me.
