Adam Hughes — Schooled

Betty and Veronica # 2, January 2017

Here’s a great page from the Betty and Veronica “reboot” series written and drawn by Adam Hughes from 2017.

Re-reading the 3-part story, I’m amused by the irony more than anything else — one of comics’ most talented and compelling artists created a dialogue heavy series that takes away from his own visual storytelling and covers up some of his own glorious art. (This page is an exception, fortunately.)

The story does have its charms at moments, (albeit with some odd narrative choices), and ultimately not much in terms of depth…

But, oh, that original art.
