Manic Monday--I've Got Your "Widescreen" Right Here!

The antidote to "deconstruction" in storytelling:

Start with a fight scene per page...

The very next page, double it to two fight scenes...

...then four fights per page...

...and 6...

...and eighteen (yes, 18)!!

...and then 18 plus a giant FWASH!!

That's more action in the first 6 pages then you get in the first 6 issues of many modern comics...

From Avengers #1 (1998), art by George Perez and Al Vey, script by Kurt Busiek.

    Jeez, Crystal, after a lifetime as an Inhuman and several years as an associate of the Fantastic Four, you should know that you NEVER say that. It's just tempting the writer, I mean the gods...
