Some of the finest artwork in comic books today. Alex Ross is unsurpassed in the quality of painted artwork being created for comic books today. "Power of Hope" is an encouraging, uplifting story with dynamic artwork to go with it. I've enjoyed virtually everything that Ross has worked on, and this book is no exception.

I'll admit that this book wasn't entirely what I was expecting. The artwork by Alex Ross was fantastic, just as expected. I learned more about the personality of Captain Marvel than I had hoped. However, I was expecting more of a comic book, like Ross' Kingdom Come series. Instead, I found the story geared more towards children.

Here, Alex Ross and Paul Dini take a crack at the Big Red Cheese, and he is definitely in Big Red Cheese mode in this book.

Dini and Ross really capture what the Big Red Cheese is all about beautifully. It's also very moving-the Cap's struggles as a nieve hero in the complex world of today is nicely handled, with some suprising and powerful emotional pay offs. The action is terrific as you'd expect. Highly recommended!
