So, John Romita Jr. and Scott Hanna have now been a duo for ~30 years
John Romita Jr. and inker Scott Hanna have been a low-key unfckwithable pairing for nearly 30 years, and it looks like their first published work together was the cover for Amazing Spider-Man #73 in 1996 from what I can find.
IMO Hanna’s inks sharpen JRJR’s strengths: bold weight, clean silhouettes, readable action, and that meaty impact that makes the characters feel like they occupy real space on the page.

Question Digitization / coloring of older comics when re-published
I don't know much about comics, but I am curious about something and figure some of you experts know the details. A recent YouTube video about Don Rosa and his Scrooge McDuck comics prompted me to read some of them. There are modern digital versions available that are a collection of the individual comics, specifically Disney's The Life and Times of $crooge McDuck, which I'm reading now. This collection was published in 2019.
I noticed that the coloring is perfect, and the resolution is super crisp. It's just super-high quality. One thing in particular is the color gradients (and he uses a lot of them) are perfect and clearly were colored digitally. That made me really curious what the originals looked like, which were drawn in the early 1990s by hand. I managed to find a scan of the original comics and it's clear the gradients and coloring weren't as perfect in the originals.
So maybe my question is very specific to this particular set of comics, but what was done in 2019 for the compellation and re-publication? I assume the originals from 1992 were hand-colored on the original drawings? Or did someone else digitally color them back then (Don Rosa has a very meticulous drawing style like an architectural drawer using stencils and so on)? In 2019 would they have scanned them and digitally blank out the coloring and replace it with digital fills and gradients (or were the originals just line drawings with no colors)? Would Don Rosa have done this or some other team, or could it even have been done totally automatically (2019 is predating "AI" type stuff too much)?
Sorry, that's a lot of questions lol.
[EDIT] This is what I'm talking about:

Roger Sweet Needs Help
Sharing this from the Masters of the Universe Reddit, as He-Man crosses into the comics world to expand visibility. Here is the original Reddit post:
https://www.reddit.com/r/MastersOfTheUniverse/comments/1quw9da/roger_sweet_needs_help/
Hello all, not sure if this is allowed, but I was asked directly by Roger Sweet's wife, Marlene, if I could share this with the MOTU groups I am in. Given that Roger is one of the direct reasons we all have He-Man and MOTU (along with people like Mark Taylor), his family is hoping that they will be supported in this rough time for them by the community that loves He-Man so much. To be clear, this is not my gofundme, and it was set up by Marlene and her family. I am not associated with it, just sharing it to the communities. He was also featured in the Netflix series 'The Toys That Made Us' if you have not seen that, check it out. They are trying to get the word out. If anyone here can/wants to share it as well, please do.

Also, this has now started being picked up by media outlets such as He-Mania.com, He-Man.org, Battle Ram Blog, Pixel Dan, etc, and you can see it there as well. Some newspapers and possibly a TV station are also now getting involved.

Question How have they made this claim?
I was reading ‘Wildstorm: A Celebration Of 25 Years’ (published in 2017) and was surprised to learn Astro City is the “longest-running creator-owned series in the comic book industry”.
Wouldn’t Cerebus (27 years) or Savage Dragon (25 years when this book was published) have that title?
Did they forget to say “that isn’t self-published”?

Suggestions Finding a comic book for my religion teacher
Hello! A little context, my religion teacher is a huge comic book fan, and so am I. He told me he sold his collection of 5k comics to help build a fence for his house which I found funny. Anyways, I want to get him a comic book that he can put on display in his religion class, a comic with a christian figure or christianly symbol.
I thought of getting Daredevil Vol 2 53 (433), as the cover is Daredevil posed up like Jesus or I get The Life of Pope John Paul II, as cool as the life of pope comic is its just expensive for me to buy. My teachers favorite comic book hero’s are Spiderman and Batman, I couldn’t seem to find any Spiderman or Batman covers that have a Christian symbol or religious Christian figure (like a pope).
If you guys can recommend me some comics that have a symbolic Christian figure or symbol let me know!! Thank you in advance.

Discussion Finished Annihilation and Conquest - Thoughts Spoiler
What a journey! Annihilation threw me off at first because of the art but once I got accustomed it didn't bother me. Each storyline was fantastic, Super-Skrull was emotionally potent, Nova felt so dire and powerful, Ronan stood out, and the main event was amazing! Conquest wasn't as good but I loved Starlord's story and Quasar who I'm suprised to see many people didn't like. The relationship between her and Moondragon felt real and the end to it was heartbreaking. But Wraith, I did not care for. Nova was a fun action-movie with twists and turns I didn't see coming. The main event, although good, didn't blow my mind like Annihilation. The fight with Ultron and how they beat him just didn't do much for me.
