#RIPTomPalmer inked my favourite #Avengers story still to this day!

#RIPTomPalmer #averitableuniverse Here’s a rare Palmer drawing, just before Colan picked up penciling duties on the book. It’s surprising how clean it is, in contrast to his Colan inks. It’s heavily under the shadow of Ditko, but it’s a marvelously colorful and abstracted two page spread. One way that Colan left his mark on the comic was leaping away from Ditko’s version of the astral plane - rather than jewels, frames and infinite tinker toys, Colan interpreted the astral plane as a chaos of vortices and viscosities. Both interpretations have their appeal. https://www.instagram.com/p/ChdOF-5vsk3/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

#RIPTomPalmer It’s not just that Tom Palmer inked Gene Colan well - it’s also that Colan must’ve been one of the most difficult pencilers to ink. Colan pretty much eschewed the kind of hard lines and defined edges that provide a solid scaffolding for inkers to support themselves. He gave Palmer a scumble of mists and shadows to translate, and Palmer managed to capture the energy of those graphite suggestions and elisions with both vigor and delicacy. https://www.instagram.com/p/ChdNKV2vIcT/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

#RIPTomPalmer #idoexist I remember reading somewhere that Colan, while he liked and respected Palmer, wasn’t too keen on his use of zip-a-tone shading here and there, but I think Palmer used it very artfully - a wall to bounce the more formless shadows off of. https://www.instagram.com/p/ChdMhkWPE5G/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

#RIPTomPalmer #lethalboltsofforce RIP to Tom Palmer, Gene Colan’s most simpatico inker. I recently read through their first run on Dr Strange, which is a series of eye-scrambling visuals squeezed out of totally nonsensical scripts. https://www.instagram.com/p/ChdLpZYv5-h/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
