This is the last blog post I'll be writing from the land down under...I guess the land next to the land down under as we're in New Zealand, but still...

Tomorrow, we return to North American soil.

In the meantime, I leave you with this page. I'm sure you've heard by now about the upcoming 'demise' of Marvel's First Family, The Fantastic Four. While I doubt the long term effect of the 'Three' storyline, I'm still left wondering which one it will be.

My bet's on Johnny Storm. Marvel's got a metric ton of fire guys.

Today's page was pencilled by Alan Patrick:

Allan Patrick, 32, got started in comics as an assistant of art for Peter Vale and Joe Bennet.  His first work was a 4 pages for DC Comics in a mini series called Rise of Arsenal.  He is currently working under the agencing of Impacto Studios exclusively for Dynamic Forces.

And in a rare turn of events, this page was inked by another fellow:

Belardino Brabo, also friom Belem, Brazil did several ink jobs mostly for DC:
Maxi-série 52 # 51, Dr Fate Countdown to Mystery #8 ,Nightwing #153,Teen Titans #70 - 72

We'll see you on Monday, folks, have a great weekend.
