It was a religious painting of Jesus holding up some dude that couldn't stand because he was tormented or something. Ceoria's drawing is actually very similar! Only instead of Jesus we've got ROM!

While I'm not happy with the events, it was good to see the homage to The Original Posse, and interestingly it is noted that these new spaceknights are supposed to be as powerful as 'an entire cavalry' which would make them uber-bad-dudes. It kind of had more of the Original Series feel to them unlike the AngstKnights or the WimpKnights of the Annihilators series. I'm really hoping this series brings about some sort of "reset" again.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17156988724308374894noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2178894507761299440.post-45161245813176919242013-08-14T08:34:44.155-07:002013-08-14T08:34:44.155-07:00just a heads up folks it's still early in the ...just a heads up folks it's still early in the morning over here and my LCS hasn't opened up yet but the following came from an Infinity#1 review . . .<br />"Visually, this comic is most striking in the seven pages on Galador, featuring Spaceknights, Builders and Captain Universe. Washed in glowing reds and soft amber with stunning glints and gleams of most of the rest of the spectrum thanks to the coloring of Justin Ponsor, this scene is vibrant and alarming, filled with critical decisions and pure raw power. It may not be the most critical moment of the series, but it is definitely the most devastatingly gorgeous scene of "Infinity" #1 with its broad range of activity and emotion."Shlomo Ben Hungstienhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07238927958290618109noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2178894507761299440.post-8282849684691523182013-08-14T08:21:19.379-07:002013-08-14T08:21:19.379-07:00Very cool reach out to Ceoria I hope she sees it.
