  1. Nice one Steve. I'm loving that Jimmy is naked from the waist down!

  2. In the original, Curt Swan telegraphs Superman's "Check out this diluted kid" attitude beautifully. I don't get any of that from Steve Kaye's version.

  3. That's a great victorian-style Olsen! And good to see Steve has used the correct form 'Mate'!

  6. Cheese: "Don't get any of that"? Huh-- attitude's in the eye of the beholder I guess, but it looks like it's there for me. He just looks a little less mean about it.

    (By "diluted" do you mean deluded, or were you talking about something else?)

  7. That's brilliant. The cover within the cover is a nice touch and the whole thing is very subversive.
