I wanted to ask why Neal Adams art always looks so much more dulled down after its inked than when its actually sketched out. I always get the feeling that hes paired up with the same inker each time. It seems like once his work is inked character face areas look disproportionate.

Neal’s been inked by a number of different people over the years, including himself. So this could simply be the change from pencils to inks–there’s always someting ineffable lost, no matter who the penciler is. With teh best inkers, there’s also something gained.
