Description Here's a fun little double-page spread from issue 54 showing little bits from moments of Mark and Eve's relationship. I penciled this issue tight since I'm not inking myself, I love having an inker, Cliff Rathburn is the man. It really speeds things up and we kinda NEEDED to get the book back on track, it was falling behind horribly. So I hope you are liking the new art and new schedule!

I just read the issue. This is one of my favorite storytelling pieces you've done (perhaps because of the characters).

It works really well, great job

Do you always give your inker such tight pencil work to follow? Or just this once because of the dreaded deadline doom? Its great work!

Powerful stuff. The hallmark of a truly great artist is the ability to make non-action scenes like this just as, if not more, compelling than a knock-down-drag-out brawl.

I like it the whoe scene and what not, just one question, do you use pencils of the 2h range or 4h ??? just wondering and also do clients like the people you draw for ask for artist to draw using certain mediums or are you given a choice, ??? hmm,
take care and keep up the fantastic art Wya,

I can draw with whatever I want just as long as the job gets done. I use an HB for sketching it out and a 2B for finishing it off.

not my favorite part, but little details like that matter! very clean lines there. especially the choice of placement there to also act as a scene seperator.....

... Kirkman's going to kill her, isn't he? Every time he does stuff like this, somebody dies. Oh, but he's a beautiful bastard!

Wha? When was the last time Robert did something like this and someone died soon after? Eve will not be killed off, no way. We all like the character too much.

TheKiltedStranger In reply to RyanOttley [2008-10-25 17:50:45 +0000 UTC]

Well, there was the wife and baby in "Walking Dead;" there was a scene where Rick is loving on the new baby, a "Woohoo, everything's okay!" kinda moment, and then Mom & Kid get exploded. Same kinda thing in Wolfman: he's having marriage trouble, but it looks like they're gonna work it out... nope, wait she's been eaten by a vampire, dang. I'm also hoping that the last issue of "Brit" you did the cover for doesn't mean "dead baby." Things seem to be looking good for Brit, and then baby gets murderfied.
Don't get me wrong, I love Kirkman, I just notice the aforementioned stuff because I'm on these books like a fat kid on a cupcake. But, I'm worried that more of the characters I enjoy are gonna die. You dig?

Oh. Well I meant just on Invincible. But yeah he does with his books occasionally. I just couldn't remember a time when he did that in Invincible.

i definitely love seeing your work in tight pencils, love your inks, but this is just the same with even more enhancement when Cliff gets his hands on it. I love these two spreads I've seen so far..... the storytelling is sick, and definitely something to learn from..... so beautiful!
