There were several artists whose work I loved, but they I did not see them as much as I would like.
Kerry Gammill always got work, but from my perspective it always seemed to be sporadic and often relegated to second tier titles. I know he eventually got Superman at DC, but I always thought he should have been a big hit. His figures were always attractive, and he was a solid storyteller.
Bob Hall was another artist I liked. As long as he had a good inker, I thought his work was great. I thought the work he did on Squadron Supreme showcased his style well. And while Paul Ryan was a competent replacement, I would have preferred Bob Hall to have completed the series. I was crushed that he and Stern did not continue on West Coast Avengers when it was given over to Englehart and Milgrom. To me he seemed like a solid, dependable artist whose work was above several artists who seemed to have more prolonged runs on major titles.
Chris Warner was another artist I loved. I thought his art was beautiful and moody. He got some work at Marvel in the mid-eighties, but then moved on lower profile work at Dark Horse.
