I just finished reading the book Modern Masters Vol. 5: J.L. García López which is basically one long interview with the legendary artist where he talks of his carrer as a comic book artist in Argentina and at DC Comics - highly reccomended.Anyway, when he talks of superhero comics he's not exactly too excited and admits he was "uncomfortable" with the genre (!). This coming from the man who's sinonimous with DC Comics heroes and who literally defined the way they looked with the fabled DC Style Guides (man, I wish I had one of those).
But which title does he remember most fondly? DC Comics Presents? Batman? No, its: Atari Force.
Go figure.
But for those of us who consider García-López one of the best if not THE best comic book artist ever (at least at DC) this colume is invaluable. As far as I know this is the ONLY collection of work by García-López, get it while you can.
