 This is the rare comic that achieves it. Matt Fraction, Steve Lieber, Nathan Fairbairn, and Clayton Cowles are that team There's never a question of whether Steve Lieber is versatile enough to nail the serious moments as well as the many, many gags Fraction throws into the script In fact, there are so many gags; it[...]

Terrifics #4 art by Doc Shaner and Nathan Fairbairn Doc Shaner was a great artistic choice for this issue, as his slightly more[...]
