The biggest thing holding Bryan Hill’s work back in comics so far has been his artistic collaborators. Fortunately, this go-around he’s received an extremely talented visual stylist, Dexter Soy. Dexter Soy is one of the great visual storytellers in the industry today and doesn’t receive the proper recognition in my opinion. His action scenes are extremely impactful and always easy to follow. I also need to shout out color artist Veronica Gandini. She makes all the heroes look great during their moments.
Bryan Hill and Dexter Soy are a match made in comic book heaven and Veronica Gandin..
