  • Knighted’s premise seems pretty derivative, but I’m here for the Mark Teixeira art! Can’t remember the last time he was on an ongoing or miniseries.

    • I believe this is part of a greater superhero thing AWA is putting together which makes it a bit more intriguing. Anyone willing to do tights that isn’t the big two will get me to take notice.
