Sharp artwork and a writing style that veered from Frank Miller grim'n'girtty to Looney Tunes weird'n'wacky Roachmill was a Blade Runner future but with aliens instead of replicates and Rochmill a freelance "pest controller" who clearly isn't all human.

From the early days of Dark Horse.

Jordan Crane walks us through his entire working process, from sketches to printed book, in this 2+ hour conversation. Crane is warm and open in discussing his work, this video will be of value to anyone who makes comics.

One of my all-time favorites.
I came to surprising conclusion that I have never drawn a fan art of the most important comicbook of my childhood - THORGAL by Van Hamme and Rosinski. And now was time to get it out of my clogged system. #thorgal #comics #comicfanart #fanart #thorgalaegirsson
