i thought that the art in "Arcadia", Jill Thompson's first Invisibles arc, was really very lousy, but as Lennox said, this could well be Dennis Cramer's fault, i don't know.
However, the art in her second arc, "She-Man" (i think that's what it was called), which she inked herself, was great.
Apparently Sales of the Invisibles dropped by two thirds, or three quarters, or something, because of Arcadia, and while admittedly the story was perhaps not quite what a lot of people were expecting, i think that the art probably had more to do with it.
So, arguably the finest comic of the nineties may have been almost cancelled because it had the wrong inker.
Yikes, this is quite the case of threadrot. |
