Most writers and artists, and Moore is one of them, just ignore the fact the Syrin has to scream in order to fly. It doesn't show in the art and it doesn't affect on the story, even though the heroes don't want to make ruckus. I guess you can handle this issue by saying she's making special sonic sounds that human ear cannot hear but it's never explained that way. Only occasionly someone complains about the noise when the heroes are together. They aren't even suppose to hear one another when Syrin is flying above them.<br />B. Syrin is bitchy to the drunken guy about not trying to get sober, which is the opposite reaction you would'v expect from someone who himself had a drinking problem in the past (thus is suppose to has more compasion to the problem).<br />I think the main personality attribute of Syrin in Moore's run so far is "bitchiness".ray swifthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10850259140570017583noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2734283773701136760.post-89414655024937783692010-07-16T00:12:23.704-04:002010-07-16T00:12:23.704-04:00I was just adding this issue to my CCL database, w...I was just adding this issue to my CCL database, when I noticed my copy is lacking color in the characters and faces. and the money looks a different color as well. The scan posted above looks like mine, while the scan on CCL and the Marvel wiki both show additional color. ( http://marvel.wikia.com/File:X-Force_Vol_1_72.jpg )<br /><br />Is this just a case of image-processing making the scan overly vivid? Or do we have a previously unnoticed color variant.<br /><br />My copy has green money and a red tie, but grey-scale figures and faces. If anyone has an issue showing the additional red coloration, let us know...Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04535754753311279813noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2734283773701136760.post-66747551156078975892010-06-26T10:52:57.244-04:002010-06-26T10:52:57.244-04:00While some elements are dated, it's still a gr...While some elements are dated, it's still a great run that is fun to read.

Man... ). I always thought Scooter and Louise were supposed to be Shaggy and Velma from Scooby Doo.
