It's interesting how tastes in art change over the years, As a kid, I remember being very put off by the work of Frank Robbins when I first saw it on a Batman story. As I grew older and began to expand my horizons beyond the traditional DC and Marvel house styles, I started to understand the appeal of his dynamic style with exaggerated physicality and thick heavy lines. His comic strip work really won me over.

Great Golden Age-style cover! Hawkman and Union Jack make a great pairing!
I knew it. Even before I read the text I knew it was Frank Robbins. Good work Ross.
I'm afraid I'll never, ever feel that positively about the artwork of the two Franks. For me, Baron Blood was far scarier-looking during the two-part sequel in "Capt. America" that also introduced Joey Chapman as the third Union Jack!
That being said, why would Carter Hall and Brian Falsworth be hanging out after World War II? Is Hydra trying to stir up trouble among anti-colonialist Egyptians with a Scarlet Scarab impostor?
i’m much the same, when i saw his captain America or the Invaders I just thought sloppy work, now rereading them it’s strangely impressive !
Strange, yes. Impressive? Not so much. :-(
Keep it up Ross and you'll be doing classes on art style and structure. Kubert, Robbins, Aparo, Byrne, Kirby.... you get the idea.
Hawkman with Union Jack reminds me of a Hawkman Wildcat combo. Still nicely done.
Tobor's on to something, Ross. You could sit as a panelist on the topic at some of the smaller Comic Cons.
Wolverine and Wildcat would be a more fitting combo, I think. Two bad-a**es who prefer to kick it rather than kiss it.
@Bob, Ross, and Cary: Especially since they haven't been teamed up together in over seven years!
This is great! I hope it's the beginning of a long running series with these two.
Awesome!
And I like the Wolverine / Wildcat team up especially if Ted still has his magic booster. "You only THOUGHT they were dead!"
