Anyone have any thing to say on the art? Which pix is your favorite? any you don't like? I am kind of surprised that no one has started a thread like this. usually one shows up with in 10 minutes after a release. Could it be that catalyst has completely overwhelmed its art critics with pure awesomeness??

And for once, you people who have something good to say post it! Hell, I may as well start it off....

The cover art is stupendous. This is by far the most eye catching cover I have ever seen. Putting the Elmore 1st edition cover on inside was pure genius and a very nice nod to those who came before.

Interior art is an interesting mix of cleaned up art from the past and a Drek load of flashy,original, eye candy. The full color art at the beginning of the chapters is a perfect compliment to the short stories, giving an almost perfect visual preview of the words to come.

my favorites are:
all of the begining chapter pages- gorgous all the way through
page 25- top-
page 72- the police line up
page 108-the elf smuggler-hot, 'nuff said
page 223-matrix play

next? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/grinbig.gif)
