The Co-Conspirator: A Visit with Diana Schutz | The Comics Journal

Sakai and Miller are definitely "old school" when it comes to their craft, she is glad to say, since she hates to read comics on a computer. "Stan is a master craftsman. When I get an issue of comics from Stan, that's what it is, ink on board. So that's a great joy to read. Frank Miller also still works directly on art board. He's burning rubber these days, making comics again, and he's done two issues of Xerxes so far, which is a prequel to 300. The artwork is twice up, which is how the very first comics guys worked, in the 1940s, and it's all double page spreads. So Frank sends in these big gigantic inked pages and they're magnificent, just drop dead gorgeous. It's a great feeling to sit there and hold the art and have the tactile sensation of the work as you read it. You're in touch with … that's about the closest communication the artist can get with the reader, if you're actually sitting there reading the art boards. I wanted other people to experience Frank's work in a similar way – not only as gripping story, but as beautiful art – which is what prompted The Art of Sin City book in 2002, and that became the first of many subsequent Art of … books published by Dark Horse."
