He’s a gentlemen and a professional in every sense, and I wish comics had a hundred more like him.

It had his mom’s recipe for Tsunemono…. :)

I don’t know that I’d say most artists don’t turn in originals, but digital delivery is becoming increasingly common. Actually, I just learned this morning that Sergio is among those who no longer sends in art boards, which means we’re missing whatever marginalia or paintings he’s including. Stan, the landscapes on those Groo pages from a few years back sound wonderful.

On the backs were wonderful water color paintings of landscapes, sunsets, and the hut-over-the-water that they stayed in.
