JB, could storylines in this title cause events in other titles on which you worked to play out in different ways?

I'd love to see Mark Farmer's inks on these pages, and I'm a little curious on how Terry Austin would handle these pencils so many years later.
========================
Yeah! I would love to see what Terry Austin could do with this as well!
One of my favorite unsung penciller-inker team ups was JB and Jerry Ordway. I really dug those FF issues they worked on together. It would be interesting to see his hand on these X-Men pages.

I have enjoyed Jerry Ordway’s work on POWER OF SHAZAM and other titles. I think his inks were a bit strong when he and JB worked on the JLA “Tenth Circle” miniseries.

Exercise or not, I agree this is a whole lot of fun. Now all we need is to discover that Ditko secretly drew 100 more issues of Spider-Man that pick up right where issue 38 left off.

I love Ordway, but generally their collaborations felt like too much Ordway, not enough Byrne. Sometimes those things work, sometimes not - I liked their FF issues when they came out in my teens, but now it seems like there's too much tension between the styles of the two artists.
A pairing I really dug that I'm pretty sure most others did not was the (one?) issue of FF that Al Gordon inked. Gordon used a feather-light, detail-rich approach that was kind of like the anti-Coletta. I don't know if it would be a sustainable collaboration, but it was nice to see JB's pencils through that particular lens - particularly 35 years on, when a look back shows very few other inkers took that approach.

If THIS can happen, why not X-MEN ELSEWHEN?

".... the two companies will develop middle-grade comic books designed for younger readers."
*sigh* I guess comic books for ALL-AGES is a dead issue, huh?
-C!
Edit: Sorry, didn't mean to jump into a thread drift, JB.
