I was a regular collector Paul and I've probably the same amount of comic books in cupboards about the place some boarded some not but since starting a family and whatnot (not to mention the price of a comic book these days yikes!) I've mainly focused my coin on music as outside of the family circle while comics can still be a good read, the music is what keeps on keepin on yeah!?

I have to admit to having not read the Catwoman titles you refer to but I will certainly hunt a TPB down if there's one about, if cover art for Save Tomorrow is anything to go by ;)

Always drawn to good art I'm a huge fan of cartoon strips and daily's too so I've found my taste in comic books veered more toward the Humberto Ramos' of the world (own most his work on Spidey and many trades) just love that whacky style and there's a few others similar nowadays too... Back in the day though was of course big on the McFarlane era of Spidey and love the work of the Kuberts, Pacheco who comes a very close second to John Byrne in his presentation of Superman (I see a touch of Byrne in Melo's art!?) and was always a fan of Conan and on that note a huge shout out to the Cary Nord drawn issues of Dark Horses' Conan a few years ago he managed to bring a beauty to Conan not seen since those early 80's issues... Miller Daredevil, Batman's and Year 1's and all that jazz... Great times ;)

*Phew*

Interestingly while I now dig your cover art I gotta say my tastes these days normally sway toward more darker perhaps heavier music and cover art, but just thinking outside the box here for a bit, I actually think a darker cover art by Melo might also have worked for Save Tomorrow!? And again that's a positive. While most your lyrics are classic MR I hear some dark undertones in the music so I'm guessing that's also a drawcard fer my ears (is it fair for me to say too some of these tunes have me headbanging in a similar way that I did with the first Leverage album... Maybe just me?)...

Look forward to blasting this one outta the car stereo ;)
