Comment
Skrulls, Skrulls and more scheming Skrulls! Gotta love 'em! Especially when they're pencilled with panache by John Byrne and inked with exquisite aplomb by Joe Sinnott!
Absolute beaut of a page with loads of energy, movement, some GREAT Skrullish expressions and the unmistakable rendering skills of one of the best inkers in the comics biz ever. And hilariously nefarious dialogue by Marv Wolfman, who was clearly having fun! Could you love to hate any villains more? Could you possibly write them to be more craven and treacherous? Love this page!
Never thought my humble collection would have a Byrne FF page in it - and with Sinnott to boot! One to be treasured and enjoyed. This was on the stands at the same time as X-Men #124, so Byrne was around a year and a half into his iconic run and a year from completely revamping and refreshing the FF too from #220.
