Mike Hawthorne, along with inker Terry Pallot take over for the Warlock sequence; it looks decent, even if Adam’s face looks quite odd and it’s hard to discern what’s going on with the Surfer from a visual standpoint Bellaire provides excellent work throughout, with a lot of color being splashed about the page in a[...]

He almost never seems to be in control of whatever situation he’s in, and even the meaningless conflict involving Loki is caused by the Trickster God banking on Peter being witless and reckless.[caption id="attachment_789023" align="aligncenter" width="600"] Amazing Spider-Man #795 art by Mike Hawthorne, Terry Pallot, and Marte Gracia[/caption]At least the art is quite good[...]
