In my opinion Brian Bolland is fantastic to capture the spirit of the Silver Age. I like see a new serie in this style.Alan Moore for text and Brian Bolland for art...Wow! a real dream!!

You know, you're right.... Bolland is the creme de la creme.  His original looking stuff (like Camelot 3000) was great, but as a "ghost artist" he is ultra talented.  THE most amazing artist out there. 

Oh... don't forget the cover to World's Funnest...

Since he has worked with Grant Morrison many times before, on covers at least, why not have him take over All-Star Once Franks leaves after issue #12?

More cool artwork:

Alan Moore TPB Cover:



Monkeys Vs Animal Man


Swamp Thing Vs an Ape


The other chimp...

Because we'd be lucky if they shipped  one issue a year?

To his credit, the great Mr. Bolland doesn't want to make books late because he knows he can't do a 20+ page book on a regular schedule.

So he makes Frank look like Sergio Aragones?

Never mind then, but at least get him to draw covers, his covers are amazing!
