If you were tripping on the overdone inking that Art Adams had in 80s and then later McFarlane but you knew their art was full of mistakes, then I think you'll love this. Pretty much all the features, though especially Ray, Jester and the Rookie, have so much texture rendering. This sure is educational. I had no clue pulp comics artwork was this elaborate then. Initially clicked on this series to see how crappy Bozo Robot would be. What a surprise.
