My favourite part of every book is the front matter. The forewords, the introductions, everything but the book. I like how books relate to other books, and how they form a personal constellation.

You're Jim Lee, and you've got money to burn. You manage to throw though cash Uncle Al's way to get him to work on a cheese cake title and he does the best he can with what he's given.
Trying to inject actual Hatian voodoo into the character was a noble idea that mostly lands flat in execution but I appreciate the effort.
There's nothing worth mentioning about the Michael Lopez's art, but at least Adam Hughes turned in some good Mucha inspired covers.

This isn't a good comic. Liefeld's art is weak, as is that of about half the guest artists. That said it's probably one of the most interesting Moore deep cuts I've read.

Having read the whole book I still have no idea who's on the cover.
