Adventures of the Mask #8
Dark Horse Comics (August 1996)
WRITER: Michael Eury PENCILER: Neil Vokes INKER: Barbara Kaalberg LETTERER: Clem Robins COLORIST: Matt Webb DESIGNER: Julie Gassaway CREATOR/CONSULTING EDITOR: Mike Richardson EDITOR: Greg Vest COVER INKER: Jay Geldhof
A killer heat wave has settled on Edge City, and Stanley’s old college bully is making a fortune in ice cream sales. Attempts to beat the head leads to the Broiler interfering. However, Milo knows what’s behind the heat wave and when Stanley won’t listen to him (relatively speaking, of course), he takes matters in his own paws and the mask to his face.
What they got right: The mayor is colored properly in this issue. Things are always interesting when Milo wears the Mask.
What they got…. I can’t really say “wrong”. Nothing is technically wrong with it, but it didn’t excite me the way the previous issues have.
Recommendation: I still recommend the comic, but mostly because I recommend the series.
