Let’s just say that this is my third attempt to get this goodie (two-tome) series up and posted here.
I’d previously typed a load of carefully, thoughtfully-crafted words already… all lost, now, due to server and bot-scheduled problems, evidently.
So then: it’s Luka Lucas Varela; must read!

Note: sorry folks, but I’m beyond pissed-off and frustrated, simply trying to get the bloody-content shared, 8*&(@!(&%@!$&@!$3a89@()@#&()@#&()$&
Note2: Just to add on-- today we discovered that my friend and neighbor had died (i.e. “Cal”) some week or two previously in his apt, evidently. And I… had to coordinate with the leasing office and fire dept to take care of his body.
Bloody hell… is this some kind of endurance-test?
It’s Lucas Varela, he’s argentinean. Really good artists, I have a couple of books from him.
Fixed, thank you.
What books do you have of his?
Anyway, he’s one of my favorite artists. To me, he has this… awesome gift of boiling things down visually to make the writer’s essential points.
On the surface, Varela has an appealing, somewhat minimalistic style, nicely-rendered. Like a tribute to pure linemanship, with an excellence designed to communicate a story cleanly and directly, IMO.
Even so, look at the amusing inventiveness of his 3D design, when he breaks it out, here. One feels he’s totally comfortable with all that, and could do it for years, had he moved in a slightly different medium…
Oof, to try to sum up a master artist like this… :S
