Some inkers are good but just not suited to ink certain pencilers. Wise choices should be up to the editors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A good tattoo artist takes into consideration the spreading of ink over the years and modifies image. 1950's war comics and F For Fake 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Senormac Posted November 8, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted November 8, 2018 I was blown away when I saw these.

Without the colouring, maybe making it easier to focus on the detail, they really do look even more dynamic and stunning.

Popular Post Jaylam Posted November 8, 2018 Author Popular Post Share Posted November 8, 2018 (edited) I remember first opening my copy of X-Men #56 in 1969 and being blown away by this splash page. Neal Adams' pencils with Tom Palmer's inking was a perfect match. The presentation makes you feel the energy and movement as though you are watching a motion picture.

Jaylam Posted November 8, 2018 Author Share Posted November 8, 2018 (edited) Hey JazzMan, I remember this Black Widow page and how. Interestingly, I just now have realized that the name of the apartment building mentioned on the same page is sort of a double entendre considering the implied nude illustration of Black Widow coming out of the shower.

Mammon: wealth regarded as an evil influence or false object of worship and devotion. It was taken by medieval writers as the name of the devil of covetousness, and revived in this sense by Milton. vaillant 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I think that meaning is already implied in the same sentence with the use of "overpriced beehive", however, "mammon" is very close to another word concerning certain female anatomy that is almost on clear display in the ensuing panels and coupled with the word "towers" it's not much of a reach to come to the conclusion of a convenient double entendre being snuck in there by the writer. "Twin Peaks", anyone? Edited November 8, 2018 by Jaylam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
