A level of story telling hardly ever seen by me. I actually taught a college course on The Graphic Narrative last semester. It pleases me to know that I can actually tell a story without overloading the page with dialogue. I know most people point to Jason as the master of the wordless comic. But for me, the best wordless comics I have ever seen are Ron Rege’s stuff in Skibber Bee-Bye
So yeah, I am sure you can guess. HUGE influence on me.
