And you might be able to say, "Hey, I knew David Mack before he was DAVID MACK."
No one knows what "history" is while it's happening. You need time and perspective
to look back and say, "Hey, that made history." Believe me when I say this: When
the history books are written about this era of comics, there will be pages and pages
devoted to David Mack.
Mack is the master of a million techniques, from pencils to paints, from nailing lace
garters to blocks of wood (really!) to freehand drawing with printer ink cartridges
(really!). He has NO FEAR when it comes to defying convention...and coming up
with something that, even though you thought it would never work, works!
Mack then puts these bold techniques into everything from super-spy tales (see:
Early issues of Kabuki) to fascinating introspective tales (see: later issues of
Kabuki) to superheroes (see: Daredevil).
Some say comics are going through a Renaissance now. David Mack is a
Renaissance man.
