Most inkers I was going to suggest have already been mentioned, but I don’t think there’s been any talk of John Beatty. I’ve enjoyed everything he’s inked of yours, I think he’d do a killer job on those pages. Came across this picture of you two which was taken in 1987, pretty funny photo! Would be interesting to see the JB’s work together again.

I would love to see Kevin Nowlan ink this but somehow I don't think JB would be thrilled with the idea.

I reread TRIPLE HELIX Wednesday night.
O’Grady is a good pick!
*Since I have the TPBs, I decided to give my individual issues of TRIO
and TRIPLE HELIX to a student. I’ll check in on Monday to see what he
thinks of them.

I vote for Bob Wiacek. He has always done a great job on JB’s books.

I would love to see this series inked, coloured, lettered
and published. I pray to dog for this to happen.

I paid almost $13k for a page from FF #236. Just wish I'd started collecting ten years ago instead of 2.5 years ago.

Some of the best and tightest inks I’ve seen on JB’s work in years were the ones done by the guy that inked Triple Helix. ;-)

I bought my first Kirby page for around $50, circa 1977. Twenty years ago I bought my most recent for 100 times that, and today we can add another zero. And it’s all artificial and completely arbitrary.

I like Nowlan in general, and LOVE Farmer on Davis, but don't think either one are the right guy for THIS job. I do think Wiacek is a good call, but hope for a little heavier line weight on the near objects than sometimes he uses. That Beatty suggestion caught me off guard (just because I hadn't thought of it) but might be a good choice. Whoever it is has to understand what Byrne was in 1980 and what Byrne is now and how to span that gap. IMHO. Not an easy job, but the right person is out there. And that right person would be thrilled to be doing it. Can't wait to see who it is.

Speaking about your use of the Blue Area of the Moon JB, there will soon* be an announcement about the Fantastic Four Marvel Masterworks next volume which will be the first covering your writer/artist era. I imagine, even with the trades and Omnibuses that have come before, that it will sell very well. Lots of people have been waiting for the MMWs to reach your run.
*It's due in December I think so might get an official announcement as soon as next week.
