I first encountered Bachelo's work in Sandman & Shade (see also: The Children's Crusade bookends to that Vertigo crossover Gaiman scripted) and instantly much fell in love with his eccentric-yet-casual style.<br /><br />Shade was among the sexier of the Vertigo books in terms of content, yet there was zero exploitation whenever Chris had center stage. An accomplishment, considering the ease with which Bachelo's work lends itself to full-page spreads & showcase shots, but that's our man: he draws women simply & well without ever denigrating his subjects to being pin-ups. A body is a body is a body, his pen seems to say. Generation X wouldn't have been worth buying without him. It certainly wasn't after he left...<br /><br />I honestly wish he'd go back to doing his own stuff or at least work that wasn't X-centric, but I'll take what I can get.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28855039.post-83812548619673925182014-01-13T22:08:48.377-08:002014-01-13T22:08:48.377-08:00Wow, you weren't kidding that Cyclops had some...Wow, you weren't kidding that Cyclops had some pretty terrible looking sketch designs.Eric Leehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04640838557576652332noreply@blogger.com
