  Eye On Comics - Don MacPherson

  The creators involved in this comic book wisely opted not to try to emulate or approximate the visual style of the computer animated movie. CV Design's work on the first story is much looser but just as colorful as the source material. Still, the artists have definitely tweaked the designs of Po and the Furious Five. They fail to convey the immensity of the prison that we saw in the movie, but the action is nevertheless eye-catching and entertaining. The art on the second story reminds me of a cross between a Disney house style and the work of Scott (Tiger! Tiger! Tiger!) Morse. I love how Master Croc looks. His movements are incredibly fluid and dynamic, and the design for the faceless, bovine antagonists is cute and amusing. Read Full Review
