The way Everett gives this murky texture to the underwater scenes is really impressive... I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure the way he did this is by quickly scratching a razor blade across the finished inks. The CAJONES. That's the confidence of 30+ years experience for ya.
In panels like this, Everett's compositions pick up an almost Fletcher Hanks-type energy - simple visual elements arranged in an unnatural, vaguely surreal way. It's weird and I'm very into it.
The panel that made me buy the issue! Everett has a strong sense of how much space he has to work with and what moments to spend it on. Entering this cave marks a shift in the story from adventure/mystery to creature feature/sci-fi horror, and this big, lonely panel signals that.
Ladies, gentlemen, and honored guests, I give your our villain for the evening: TORG, THE ABOMINABLE SNOW-KING - and, look, he's not great, is he? It's mainly his coloring. Silvery-white and he might be more impressive (But the dialogue is pretty wonderful here, which helps)
