The Hex hat is outstanding. The entire subject fails without it. Good job.

These are all a lot of fun, but what I like most about this one is that the motion lines indicate that there is some serious jiggling going on, as though their breasts are also locked in mortal combat!

Fun fact: Bissette and Totleben actually started on issue #16...four issues before Moore's run began. Each of those issues has the same delightful, eerie art that would characterize the Moore run. #10 is John's first issue in the run.

I love...love love love love....Totleben art. There's something magically visceral about it. 

It's really interesting that you all bring this up, I just finished re-reading the Bronze Age Swampy Omni recently, and while the post-Wein stories (and to be honest, even a chunk of the Wein stuff as well) are pretty atrocious, there was a moment when I was like "Damn, this story sucks, but suddenly the art is much, much better!" And I found myself actually reading the stories instead of just skimming through them. It was then that I realized exactly what you point out, that Totleben was already on the book. I guess in my brain I just always associate him as starting with the Moore run. But you're absolutely right, he had that thing that Bolland had, which was a sort of deep, dark realism. I don't know how to explain it. The drawings were almost three dimensional in their eeriness, the same way all of Bolland's stuff looks kinda creepy even when he's being completely straight forward.

I never got into Doom Patrol, but I felt his Animal Man was very good for the time.  

Doom Patrol and Animal Man are so great, I am willing to give Morrison a pass even at his wonkiest. Doom Patrol has to be one of the most imaginative comix in the history of superherodom.

The only issue I read was the one about Codpiece.  It seemed like a goofy story but it didn't turn out too bad.  I may give the series a read.
