The Comet #2 - Alex Nino art & cover

Alex Nino

The Comet v1 #2, 1983 - Unlike the previous issue, Alex Nino does a better job at asserting his own style on the interior story. His inks sharpen Carmine Infantino's pencils, making the faces and figures much more distinct. Some layouts are more irregular than others, perhaps due to the lengthier page count (thirty pages). Regardless, Nino's finishes bring them all together cohesively and decisively. Sadly, the pieta-like cover has been done elsewhere with better execution. Although the cover's banner of the lower right says "number 2 of 6", the series actually ended with this issue. This is 2 of 2 Comet issues by Nino.
