Did you know? Terry and Rachel began collaborating before Rachel ever planned on a comics career. According to Terry, they were dating at the time and he first encouraged Rachel to try lettering comics, but when that didn’t click, he had her experiment with inking his pencils instead. Her clean, precise linework impressed him immediately, and the two soon became one of comics’ most recognizable teams.
