Flex Mentallo: Recolored Mystery

[woodwardiocom]

The legendary miniseries Flex Mentallo: Man of Muscle Mystery (by Grant Morrison and Frank Quitely) has finally been released in a handsome hardcover collection. For those interested, a quick warning: The art has been radically recolored. Virtually every bright color has been brought down in saturation, and many colors have been outright changed. (E.g., the woman who serves Flex eggs in the opening scene was wearing red, and is now wearing blue.) The colorist is not the same guy as in the original comic, so... I don't know what to make of it. Can't say I'm pleased.

The guy from Doom Patrol? Who flexed so hard he changed the shape of the Pentagon?!

Yup. It's a seriously trippy miniseries.

I hust got my copy. Why do they have to recolor every hardcover edition!? Lame. Still, awesome comic.
