Mr Byrne -- I've searched this web-site and am not finding what I am looking for - so I figured I would ask YOU and members of the JBF:
Is there any step-by-step images of your creative process for a page of comic art either here at the JBF or published somewhere?
I am really loving the "pencil art" section of your gallery - it is truly interesting to look at the detail, the grid-lines, perspective lines, etc. and how you used them.
I would really love to see an entire page you created - from blank sheet through each phase. Is that possible? Do you have anything phtographed like that?
Thanks so much.

To borrow a line from Joe Sinnot, "It's not in the

It's mind boggling to think that much thought goes into a comic page. You know someone is good when they make it look so easy.

Mr Byrne -- firstly -- that's AWESOME !! Secondly - is there a "planning" stage prior to that first "grid line" page? There must be - it's probably silly for me to even ask. I assume you "doodle" and "sketch" your ideas, etc. and then what you have posted here is the stages of the "final" product.
Also -- this page posted is from a book you were writing. Is there any difference to YOUR creative process at the various stages depending on how much input you have in the wirting of a book/page?
I guess a simple way for me to ask you all this is to ask you to takes us through the basic steps/stages of your creative process.
The example above is an awesome visual example of your work product process - but what else do you do in planning and execution stages that helps give us "JOHN BYRNE" ?

When I’m not inking, I go as far as the second step, but with the blacks filled in. (How’s that for a timely response!)
