I finally got the most recent World’s Finest hardcover in the mail, these spines are gonna kill me for real

I don’t know what happened the last few years, but I see people being full-blown wangs about JRJR on the tl and it makes me feel like I’m taking crazy pills

Four big splash pages right in a row in this issue, this series is good at living up to a sense of scale and importance IMO. Finch draws big ugly bastards but his actual sense of storytelling is impeccable, in this clusterfuck of an action sequence the geography is clear, the action is legible, and multiple emotional beats land inside of it. He's great at slowing the eye with denser panels when he wants you to linger on a tense moment, and propelling you through action with big, readable images.

Trying to remember if Bendis re-used this same visual trick of showing Tony Stark's whole body underneath the suit when he was actually writing Invincible Iron Man. It's an extremely good gag for this story especially, it makes him feel really vulnerable
