- Klaus inked Erik on a few issues of THOR; here’s one of the covers:
- Erik colored an issue of SAVAGE DRAGON using mostly flat color and knock-outs. Here’s a sample page from that issue:
- Kazu’s AMULET work features simpler, cartoony character work over lush, beautifully rendered backgrounds:
- Rob Guillory’s work on CHEW shows distinctly off-kilter character work and backgrounds full of extras:
- Kazu referenced this page from UNDERSTANDING COMICS by Scott McCLoud (read about his “Big Triangle” theory):

Great episode! Regarding the comments on Peanuts, Snoopy’s doghouse was originally shown from a 3/4 view in many of the strips from the 50s. Schulz did show the entrance and the pitch of the roof. There was a stip where Snoopy tried to sleep on the roof peak while it was still shown from that angle. Another Sunday strip showed Snoopy’s doghouse from several different angles.
Thanks, Reggie, for the compliment and the fact-checking.
I’ve followed up on that, pulled some examples, and added to the show notes above to correct the record! Thanks again!
Great conversation! Really glad you recorded it!
Thanks, Dave. I feel like it’s a conversation I could possibly have forever, for better or worse.
