Who's Vince Colletta?
|
He was a much in-demand inker from back in the old days of Marvel, who frequently inked over Kirby's pencils.
The point of controversy comes from the fact that Colletta was so in demand as an inker precisely because he worked fast, and he worked fast by ... well, the polite way of putting it would be "glossing over" the pencils of Kirby and other artists.
Many of Colletta's critics simply say instead that he "ruined" Kirby's pencils, and indeed, if you compare Kirby's pencils to the inks that Colletta applied to them, there's an incredible loss of artistic detail.
One critic actually accused Colletta of not even bothering to ink over Kirby's pencils with a brush, and instead, using a felt-tip pen to ink them.
