Shoot, I don't know. I do remember hearing Lawson was more heavily involved in Vol. 2's storyline than initially thought, but much, much later on Laird talked about the writing process with Lawson, how it's largely a multi-step process. 1) Laird writes up rough summaries of an issue's story and gives them to Jim, 2) Jim draws all the pages and writes initial blurbs of dialogue and captions on his own, 3) Peter goes back in and revises/fluffs up/adds to what Jim wrote. I kind of assumed their process in Vol. 4 was the same as their process in Vol. 2. That's my understanding, anyway.
