Notice Dawny in the background, probably to the next JSA cover...

And now having seen the cover, apart from the obvious story attraction of seeing Val like that I have to say I am not impressed with the artist. Is that this Michael Turner I have heard so many people rave about?

It is a very ugly picture of Val. It looks like he was trying to put a slight Asian feel to it, but just ended up making him look deformed.
Turner is actually a good artist, with his own creations. His versions of other people's characters aren't always so hot, and everyone seems to end up with the same very, very square jaws.
Ironically, this picture of Val is one of the few attempts I've seen where he's tried to get away from the square jaw, and given how awful it looks, perhaps he should have stuck to what he's good at...
Slow loading (the site's in France, I think), but here's some samples of his stuff.

I think the neck is too skinny which is why Val looks sick.

Hmm... while I don't usually like Turner's stuff, this didn't actually strike me as bad as usual.
