"When Koike presents a page in tiers, we get something close to cinematic, but while the camera moves around a room to show its subject, with enough continuity to suggest a perspective moving, there is still enough variation to show he is not just imitating filmic techniques, panning around the room, but is shifting the vertical axis of his vantage point at the same time."
—Brian Nicholson, The Comics Journal

Rising from the sewer… One of the most iconic Wolverine panels of all time, with Claremont and Byrne at their best, but also with the amazing work (here and throughout the whole saga) of least remembered, but equally great, inker Terry Austin.

"Craig’s crime noir style drew influences from Will Eisner and Milton Caniff and made him the ‘master of suggestion’. In Craig’s stories, the killings, horror and other gruesome acts mostly happened off screen, leaving much to the reader’s imagination. His artwork was clean and uncluttered, and gave his stories a spine-chilling Hitchcockian atmosphere."
—Bas Schuddeboom, in Lambiek Comiclopedia

"Cities are fascinating because they are the result of collective effort and energy of humans coming together., but they grow organically even when you try to plan them ahead of time [...]. They’ll escape that and they’ll just kind of grow on their own. I’m totally fascinated with cities as outgrowths of human community in all different aspects."
—Jason Lutes, interviewed in The Comics Journal (2018)

"If you have a good story, the action will present itself, but if the action comes and you haven’t earn it, and the emotions are not there, it’s just toys playing together."
—John Cassaday, interviewed in Lo Spazio Bianco (2017)

"Jean-Luc [Masbou] has maintained the same high standards right up to the end, and they have even increased from volume to volume. There’s something unique about his style, a special magic that draws you into the drawing and takes you on a journey with the characters."
—Alain Ayroles, interviewed in sceneario.com

"Jean had settled in Venice, on the outskirts of Los Angeles, where he conceived the story of ‘Venise céleste.’ In February, in the snow, he had come to open an exhibition in the City of the Doges [...] and he had drawn for me, without thinking about it, a story about a prince and a little fairy… a story that united us until his last breath."
—Isabelle Giraud, 'Mœbius et l’Italie, une histoire d’amour'

"By stepping outside the confines of the established superhero universes, I was able to find my own distinctive voice [...]. ‘Moonshadow’ set me free as a writer, and I brought that freedom with me when I stepped back into the Marvel/DC universes. There couldn’t have been a ‘Kraven’s Last Hunt’ if I hadn’t done ‘Moonshadow’ first."
—J. M. DeMatteis, interviewed in Fanbase Press (2020)
