I don't think Cliquet is awful, but I agree that the inconsistencies with character looks is awkward. You expect some of that between artists, but Chrittendon looks nothing like what we've seen before.
That said, it's a matter of opinion, but if it's the sacrifice I have to make to see this book out on time, I'll take it. Hornet has fallen behind maybe all of three months over the course of two years. For Dynamite, sorry to sound harsh, but that border on phenomenal.
I've seen too many of the other books I enjoy from this company lose whatever momentum they have due to tardiness so while I prefer Vitorino over Cliquet, if the latter does every 4-6 issues so deadlines can be met, have at it, Dynamite. If there's a concern that it may turn people off, credit him as "guest artist".
I'll go one further and say he surpassed it. I'll give Kevin Smith credit for setting up the template but it's a smarter book with Parks writing it. I was SO glad to see he's going on beyond this storyline. As long as he's around I'm confident that this version of the character is in good hands.

Let me say Ande Parks' writing has been strong and I enjoy his story lines. He has kept up the high standard set by Kevin Smith.
