I think part of my fondness for MacLeod is that his strengths are things that are common weaknesses in superhero comics art--his teenagers look look like real people, everyone has a different build, things like that. I don't know that he would have impressed me at all if I weren't resigned to artists failing at the things he does well. (Although I think I would still have thought Sunspot's powers looked neat!)
The first time I read God Loves, Man Kills it was in grayscale (they reprinted it in the Essentials), and it looked dreadful. So the color version worked better for me just because it didn't look like mud.
