From what you just wrote I take it to mean that you like the design of the pages, or the layout of the artwork. The way it does sort of a reverse tracking/zoom shot away from the people on the street or what have you. Is that what you're talking about? Because that I can dig. I guess you call that "art direction" right? Anyway, that's good enough, but not very interesting. I'm talking about the art itself. Not the choices made in drawing something. The art is of poor quality in my opinion. I don't mean I want three panels on a page full of detail and movement lines, etc. etc. I'm just saying I want someone else to draw the exact same pictures because I think it would be much much better that way. And obviously this is a story-centric book, but the art is just plain BAD in my opinion. There's a ton of kids out there that can do better and that's my point.
