Title: Re: The Ray

Lots of beautiful art in this series! As much as I like Lou Fine's artwork, I like Reed Crandall's Ray even better. His figures have an extra solidity that emphasizes what an anatomy master Crandall was. Both he and Fine seem to be showing off just how many angles they can draw the figure from. Exciting.

Odd how in these stories Fine created some of the most bizarre, grotesque, and downright ugly characters in comics history, but he ended up specializing in ultra-slick, conservative mainstream figures. It's like looking at two different artists. It's hard to see much of one in the other's work.
