Al Milgrom, such a gifted inker, such a crappy penciller. Can’t believe it took him and Marvel years to find out inking was his thing.

In reply to John Trumbull.

Can’t really argue with you.

I think I based their inclusion on the entry from the Marvel Wikia of Alpha Flight 13 (see http://marvel.wikia.com/Comics:Alpha_Flight_Vol_1_13)

I guarantee you that Bill Sienkiewicz and Al Milgrom had nothing to do with that Alpha Flight cover. It's just John Byrne putting their names on the headstones as an in-joke.

Wolverine’s hands are palm up in the Daredevil cover. The colorist on the issue messed up and colored his thumb the same color as the ripped part of the shirt. If you look in the E of the title logo part of DEVIL you will see his thumb there but miscolored.

We debated that Daredevil cover for weeks. It might be the worst Wolverine cover of the 80s, if not all time.

Did you notice that the claws look like they are coming out of wolvie’s palm on the DD cover?

Well, seven out of eight ain’t bad!

As for the Micronauts cover, it just never worked for me. Michael Golden was such a dynamite artist at the time and that cover seemed so sub-par for him.

That cover DareDevil 196 was the first time DD and Wolverine met. The 2nd time would not be so friendly as DD, aked by the girlfriend,s killer (or his wife, I don’t remember exactly) tries to protect a killer who kills gifted mutants (gifted as musician or painter) while Wolverine tries to avoid more mutant killings. At the end DD will recognize his mistakes.

Okay, that Daredevil cover is AWESOME.. despite the fact that Wolverine’s boots look like they’re about to impale his crotch. Okay I’m lying.
But why don’t you like his depiction on the Micronauts cover? The mask is kind of devilish looking but I don’t think it’s bad (unlike Wolvie’s arms on Kitty Pryde # 6 –are those Puck’s arms attached to Logan’s body?)
