What they are saying
Quotes from those in-the-know about Gerry's art
|
"Gerry Kissell is the consummate comic-book artist, the kind they'll tell you doesn't exist in great supply any more -- talented, conscientious, reliable, dependable, and damned fast without losing quality, too. Gerry has shown me that he can do it all properly and on deadline, which should serve both as example to aspiring artists and as a warning to working artists: don't make excuses, don't blow skimp on talent, and do deliver on time. Gerry does all of these things and more, which is only part of what makes him such a pleasure to work with."

"Gerry is an art making machine. Just a beast. We are proud to have discovered this nearly untapped resource. He produces more quality artwork in a shorter time than just about anyone in the field. And this is top notch art. His military art, in particular, is just amazing. His work on Code Word: Geronimo alone deserves an award."

I am proud to be the one who got him back into doing comic art. He is the Al Williamson of his generation. I look forward to working with him well into the future."
