I'm reading the new TwoMorrows book on Marshall Rogers and there are interviews with people who worked with him. Terry Austin recounts how, pretty much, DC mistreated him towards the end of their great DETECTIVE COMICS run and that led to him going to Marvel, where he was treated well--and of course that led to your iconic run on X-MEN.
What he says reinforces what I've always suspected--Marvel knew the value of inkers while DC didn't. DC usually had Dick Giordano and I liked Frank McLaughlin on Irv Novick and Dick Dillin--but Marvel had Joe Rubinstein, Klaus Janson, Tom Palmer, Bob McLeod, Joe Sinnott, Terry Austin, Bob Wiacek, Bob Layton, Gene Day, Dan Adkins, Dan Green, Tony DeZuniga, and more--John Severin on Herb Trimpe was magic!
Q for JB: You worked with just about everybody I mentioned above. Is there any inker that you would have liked to have had a long run with that you didn't?
Q for everybody else: What's some favorite penciler/inker collaboration where the inker really made it special for you?
