adamstrange Posted March 6, 2010 Share Posted March 6, 2010 Your comment though begs a question. You say you've been reading your comics, yet, on those pics, they all look virtually unread Which leads to: how do you read your books? I place them in a coloring book and turn the pages carefully. This technique gives support to the spine and keeps handling to a minimum. Normally the comic isn't poking out at the top like that. This photo is just to illustrate the method (and to show Scrooge my copy of White Wilderness). I have a sales brochure made of heavy, glossy paper to serve the same purpose. The bugs bunny coloring book is definitely cooler! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BangZoom Posted March 6, 2010 Author Share Posted March 6, 2010 All interior art by Alberto Giolitti, another artist who should receive wider recognition in my mind Thanks for that nugget of info, Scrooge. I had never heard of Alberto Giolitti so I looked him up on GCD. Lo and behold he's the mystery artist I remember from years ago who I was always trying to identify. Giolitti's storytelling was always superb and I loved his detailed backgrounds and elaborate costuming. (thumbs u (thumbs u (thumbs u Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
