I might pull off a couple more six-issue series in 1987 and 1993, but
otherwise I agree. Power School 2013 particularly seems headed for some
complex characterization - in addition to a certain rampaging monster.

hmmm, has anyone in comic books ever irradiated an entire ranch of
herd-creatures before? And *these* were raised by a kindly elderly
female scientist with no special powers. She was no threat to herd
structure. The herd alpha-buffalo probably reacted poorly to a visiting
herd of humans with super-powered alpha males of its own.
(I do promise to thematically link the plot elements for 2013.)

I do tweak the style slightly for each era. But I'm guessing you mean
something different by "style"... I've been at this long enough that I
might actually be improving my craft. 2012 is indeed a new style when
compared with 2011, but it will look a lot like 1985.
