Yeah, maybe it was Meltdown. I guess that wasn't Bill S. It's all running together in my head, and now I'm trying to find confirmation, by checking credits.

I have to say, Bill S's personal web site? While gorgeous, it's NO HELP AT ALL.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

I hated Steadman for a long time (he still distresses me)

I think this is an entirely valid response, as I think distress is one of the emotions he's trying to conjure.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I don't remember what got me into Muth -- Moonshadow, maybe? I love his use of unpainted paper. I adore his work.

Still have to find a copy of Moonshadow. I've never read it, and only heard incredibly good things about it. This gap in my comics reading saddens me.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

It was seriously unfair of me, now that I think about it, because Dave McKean was drinking from the same well (down to using collages), and I never thought of him as imitation anyone.

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.

Lady Door wasn't so trollopy looking in the book, was she?

Gah! No, no she wasn't. She's supposed to look like she went on a midnight raid through the V&A Museum's Fashion section, and then threw a brown leather jacket over it all.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

Sienkiewicz won me over with that first demon bear story about Dani where the art was halfway realistic, and then I was too caught up in the story to quit as his art got increasingly grotesque.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

It's been ages since I read Neverwhere, but ack. That so does not fit my mental image of her.

If you look at the pages inside, she's got a Pam Anderson rack.

It's so wrong.

Ugh. You'd think Gaiman would have enough clout in the comic world at this point to go "What are you, stupid?" to whoever did that character design.
