'Nick Roche and I were specifically asked by outgoing TF editor John Barber to "do an Ennis" à la Final Night and DC 1,000,000.' -- James Roberts

Bringing Ennis sensibilities onto a book already influenced by Keith Giffen's sensibilities (JLI having been cited as an influence on MTMTE)?

Isn't that preciously close to an obnoxiousness threshold?

Ahhh, why does Grimlock have a KISS Players tongue on that cover?!?

How do DC 1,000,000 and Final Night even relate to Garth Ennis, anyway?

Both are major crossovers in which Hitman was involved. Hitman #1,000,000 was a giant piss-take on the concept and on the book itself, and its Final Night tie-in was a bit silly but played it more or less straight.

Yeah, and in both cases, they basically had almost nothing to do with/affect the primary crossover. They were both set off in their own little corners. So that seems to relate to this, which makes fun of, participates in, but doesn't affect the big crossover storyline.

"All that scowling, It's like a smile with a grudge.."

Why am I hearing that in Peter Capaldi's voice? :)

The whole thing sounds... er, reads like a riff on the Attack Eyebrows scene, really...
