great looking art! I do believe that's one of the best pieces of art I've seen yet from Banks! Totally off the hook! Can't wait to see the others!!!  |

Amazng art by Banks, though the fact that Exo-King is a ginger is a little off-putting. I always imagined Exo-King with a thick black beard. Either way the art is absolutely fantastic. Love the look of the cybernetic arm. It's definitely menacing.

Banks' artwork for the originals has been amazing thus far. My only criticism was that Massacre lacked the stache. Otherwise Banks is doing what I thought couldn't be done - creating artwork for the original characters that does Carter's original work justice. Many have tried and many have failed.
I once believed that only Carter could draw Thantos 'right'...Banks proved me wrong.

Slick art. Reminds me of the main villian in Inspector Gadget with the arm, LOL.

This is so hard for me: the original Exo-King is one of my favorite drawings of the original 24. However, Darryl Banks has given an entirely different take on the character and it looks great. This is kind of like Filsinger Games' own "Flashpoint/new 52" scenario to use a comic book analogy. As much as I love the original 24 and the style Chuck Carter used, it is a kind of dated; harkening back to the old late 70s-early/mid 80s fantasy and RPG stuff (which makes sense since it was drawn in the mid-80s). It also helps that Banks is to me to one of the best comic book hero (and villain) designers in the modern era. He has done a great job of building on the foundation Chuck Carter laid some 27 years ago and bringing these characters up-to-date.

Amazing art by Daryl and I really like the coloring job, too! This is probably my favorite art of the "new" original 24. His metal arm looks great!
Another stellar piece of art added to the COTG universe.
