Specifically for the art of S. Clarke Hawbaker. It's the only thing i've ever seen he pencils in and I fucking love them. There was something so perfectly distinctly 90s about this comic in the best way. It was like roadhouse, meets nightwing.
Fabian Nicieza had the following to say on his stint with NOMAD.
"There are times when I start burning out, getting sick of comics. And then, I'll start plotting or scripting an issue of Nomad, and by the time I'm done, I feel great. ... [Nomad is] about Jack Munroe trying to cope with a life that he doesn't have any control over, it's about America, and it's about life. Jack also uses so many detective cliches that it's a blast writing his dialogue — where else can I use, 'The french fries were wetter than a swimsuit calendar'?"

I love Nomad and his baby bjorned sidekick, and I still hate the fact that Bru killed him off so definitively to bring back Bucky (not the baby, the WW2 teenager)

Ah, back when Steve Rogers had a secret identity and a job drawing Captain America comics.

Well hot damn, I never realized Nomad was Max Payne.

yeah killing off nomad was kinda fucked up.

Especially since Bru did it just so he could give Bucky Jack's role in the Cap family.
Was this just a one-shot?
I kinda miss Nomad. Monroe's got an interesting history.

Wow. Thought I knew a fuckton about old genre/capestuff, never heard of S. Clarke Hawbaker (if that IS his real name!) or Nomad, though.
