@Simon Bisley

Yeah, it’s more of a halfway house between two styles. Initially when I did the « Hellblazer » style I did it specifically for that book. I was criticized for it. Well, maybe not criticized but people were saying I’d been tamed. ‹ Oh, Bisley’s been tamed! He’s changed his style to a more ordinary normal style! › but it’s all bullshit. I just did a style to suit that story. You can’t draw « Hellblazer » like you draw « Lobo » or « Judge Dredd » or « Conan. » It’s just a more realistic look to it. And you’re also more concerned with telling the story and having the panels moving nicely along as opposed to being too surreal or complicated. And when you look at the art for « 13 Coins »] I’ll think you’ll find the characters are the focal point there, too. It’s a slightly more realistic style with some stylization. So yeah, there’s a relationship between my style for « 13 Coins » and « Hellblazer. »

It’s also penciled, same thing I did before. « Hellblazer » was penciled with ink, whereas « 13 Coins » is purely pencils. What we were realizing on « Hellblazer » was that when you ink the pencils all the power was lost. Same thing with Legendary and « The Tower Chronicles. » We found that the pencils look really nice anyways if you reproduce them in black-and-white. Go look at Jack Kirby pencils or Neal Adams pencils before they were inked. They’re just beautiful!
