Dear Comic Book Industry Professional Artists,
If you draw your characters with creepy "I'm watching you sleep" bug eyes and grins copied directly from Satan's ventriloquist dummy, I'm going to to keep calling them creepy. Just ask the usually awesome Gary Frank.
Sincerely,
Thomas W. Denton, esq.
(Panels above from Infinite Crisis penciled by Phil Jimenez and inked by Jerry Ordway. Both usually very good, but man their styles do not mesh.)

Giant, glassy eyes are to 00s DC what giant, useless pouches were to 90s Marvel.
AIIGH!!
I tried my best, I just can't get into Phil "Amblyopia" Jimenez.
Read any of his comics, (Infinite Crisis is almost alive with it) and I guarantee you'll find all of his characters at least once will suffer from having a lazy eye. Even Superman and Wonder Woman can't seem to get both eyes in the same directions. It's crazy.
Alot of secondary characters must have been thinking to themselves in important scenes in that book, "shit, is Power Girl talking to me??"
Obviosuly, if they were sentient and capable of independent thought, the book would be a much more interesting read.
