    The art was fantastic, I love Mike Zeck's pencils more than almost any other artist from this era. His work really just makes me think, "This is 80's comics". On the other hand, wasn't a huge fan of the writing. I haven't read a lot of or any Bill Mantlo. He's a wordsmith like Stan Lee. He loves to fill panels with "complex language". It's not bad it's just an older form of writing that doesn't gel with me. The story itself was fun and crosses over with the FF. That issue was also fine.
