Excalibur #57

[iamrman]

Plot: Alan Davis

Script: Scott Lobdell

Pencils: Joe Madureira

Inks: Josef Rubinstein

---

The Trolls are back and they have kidnapped the young mutant Alchemy.

---

The shape-shifting troll mistakenly thinks he is in a Claremont comic.

Werewolves are usually very relevant to my interests, but werewolf Meggan doesn’t do it for me.

“Gambit gon’ blow dis place sky-high!”

Next: Green Lantern #191.

Oh, yay, someone followed up on Alchemy! I remember reading his issues of X-FACTOR as a kid.

Kinda impressive here to see Joe Mad try to imitate Art Adams AND Alan Davis simultaneously. That's a tough task, but he does it pretty well!

Yeah, usually I'm not a fan of artists copying another's style, but here the blending of styles comes across as a nice tribute to the crossover rather than a simple clone.

This story is, I think, Alchemy's final appearance before his FINAL appearance where he transmutes one of the two Terrigen mutant-killing clouds, at the cost of his life.
