Quotes
- "[Artists are] in a position of movie director -- but whereas movie directors have thousands of dollars of tools at his exposure, all we have is two hands and a brain. And it is the toughest thing in the world to say, you used so many tilted panels, or you used no tilted panels, it depends. It depends. I don't think anybody has ever succeeded in telling the perfect story."The Comics Journal: Trimmings: John Buscema

@csbg 2 15. John Buscema's solid powerful Silver Surfer is my favourite after Kirby, with Marshall Rogers' lithe alien a close second.
