Certainly the FF stuff, IMO. I seem to be in the minority (silent
majority?) that like Larroca's art on FF, especially the way it brings
out the best in Liquid!'s colouring. But Claremont's wordy captions
and meandering plots make it unentertaining to read, so I guess it
really doesn't matter in that case. Having Carlos take on the title
can only be an improvement in the writing, and his StarJammers mini-
series with Warren Ellis and the recent Avengers Forever were a treat
for the eyes!
Of course, this wouldn't be Pacheco's first FF work ... :)
