It’s not often these days I agree with John Byrne’s views on comics. Let’s face it, it’s a long time since he said anything of value on his forum…
But amazingly I find myself agreeing with the sentiments (if not exactly the tone) of this post.

| (The first volume of The Jack Kirby Fourth World Omnibus) is practically a lecture course in How to Do It Right. First — it’s on flat paper! With flat color! And good, solid blacks! The pages actually look better than the original printing, especially Kirby’s famed photo-montages…..The paper is not “low quality” — it’s just not so friggin’ shiny you have to read the book in a dark closet. Those who have trouble with the quality of the paper are exactly those the comicbook companies have been aggressively courting for the past couple of decades. Magpies. “Yes, we had to raise the price again, but ooooooooo, look! We made the paper shiny!.” |
