S.W.O.R.D. Preview Page

The rest of the preview.

Hank is a dog now and I assume Lockheed is drinking himself to death over what happened to Kitty.

I'm willing to call "Stylistic choice" on the depiction of Hank and roll with it.

So Lockheed is a jack drinker...I might have known. I also like the Snake/Dragon guy. Maybe he isn't the best clairvoyant in the galaxy (he seems to be more of a department head), but he has a fun snark with Brand.

"I'm willing to call "Stylistic choice" on the depiction of Hank and roll with it."

I'm not sure about that. Even with all the stylistic variations in how he's been drawn since assuming the cat-form this one veers wildly from a feline face. Then again I am a cat lover, so I'm probably persnickety about these things. :\

"I also like the Snake/Dragon guy. Maybe he isn't the best clairvoyant in the galaxy (he seems to be more of a department head)..."

I thought he was an empath? (But I haven't read Whedon's ASTONISHING run so I could be missing something going off the preview alone.)

The impression I got from Astonishing is that Sydren is supposed to be a psychic of some kind, but it doesn't function very well (at least the clairvoyance doesn't) so Brand gives him a hard time.

Sydren: "I sssensse desstruction."

Brand: "Really. You sure. You don't wanna to look at the photo of enormous destruction some more before making such a bold statement?...tell me you are picking up something besides "house go boom"".

Sydren: "If I ate your head, two thirdssss of your agents would praise me in poemsss and sssong."

Ignoring the horribly dogging interpretation on the cover, the thing that really leaps out to me looking at the preview is "when did Hank become a Bothan?" a race that's been depicted with as much variation as him.

For this issue he has been replaced with a Bothan.

Hank looks like he's about to dress up in Granny's clothes... seriously, he's a fucking cat guys, not Bigby.

His weirdness however is completely negated by Lockheed, the world's most adorable drunk.

Why does Gyrich still exist? Honestly his presence alone makes me want to stay 300 miles away from what should be (ugly Hank not withstanding) a pretty fun book. Just kill him already!

Well, look at it this way: If he keeps pissing off Brand, she may just do that.

Not like he's alone. No one seems to be able to settle on what the hell Beast looks like since he was upgraded. Everything from Quitely's lion muzzle to Cassaday's pug cat.

Kind of torn about whether to get this. Gyrich is as fun to hate as he's ever been, I can look past the questionable portrayal of Hank, and yes drunk Lockheed, but... it still rings a little bit like Men In Black: The (Other) Comic. Eh, I'll probably grab the first ish, see how it goes.

I can't see SWORD going anywhere without having a few more major characters.

Gyrich, Beast, Lockheed and Brande aren't exactly sale pullers.

The first few issues seem like they'll have a few characters popping up that're aliens Karolina from Runaways is mentioned for example to pull people in.

Hopefully there's a plan to make this awesome and last though.

The synopsis/preview thing for S.W.O.R.D #3 mentions other aliens, including two (at least) that I think can be regarded as major characters - Jazinda and Marvel Boy. I don't know the others mentioned, so I don't know how 'major' they are.

I think it's more a question of how they get him, rather than if, but yeah. Bob's involvement is the main reason I want to pick this up.

Gah, Hank! Why did you steal Bruce Campbell's chin?

Is the rest of the art acceptable (thhats one damn fine station)? If not, why give us a cover by John Cassaday? Cassaday covers do not mix with ugly interior art. Have we learned nothing from Irredeemable?
