Doing some quality upgrades of pages I've worked on, and ran into an issue with this particular comic.
For context, this series deliberately splits art duties 50/50 between two different artists with very distinct styles for storytelling purposes (the story deliberately mixes campy silver-age adventures in flashbacks and a deconstructive, political war drama in the present day), and it's hard to say one of them is the "main" art style. There are two different variant covers per issue, so here's the covers of the first issue standalone:
I've seen the series published in a hardcover that uses some version that splits both of these images, but I'm not sure if I love this one more than either one of them standalone (I wish it didn't cut out the "STRANGER DANGER" and "I kill" graffiti of Mitch Gerads' version).
I don't think it's a great idea to have a side-by-side like current just because they become very compressed horizontally, but I dunno. Thoughts?
