		Gene, you obviously made an impression on Stan, because I could tell, when I started reading your "Sub-Mariner," that immediately, because of the way you were drawing it, Stan's speeches for the Sub-Mariner got more and more Shakespearean and noble.
		COLAN: Well, I think it was in a Captain America story-where a guy from a criminal collection agency has to make a getaway in a car-and actually, the whole thing was really on one page, so I made about six or seven pages out of it.
		COLAN: Well, Stan had so many titles to do that he allowed the artists to do most of the work as far as spacing it out, and sketching it in, so that when he'd see the artwork, all he had to do was write the balloons.

		But, while I read a few of the original comics back in the '70s, and had fond memories, especially of Gene Colan's art, reading through this titanic tome I was amazed that, not only did I not find it heavy sledding...I could hardly put it down.
		With Colan, you can imagine he is a colourist's worst nightmare, with one dynamic figure blending into another, all mixed together with swirls of mist or fog until it is nearly impossible to tell where one figure ends and another begins.
		Colan makes heavy use of darkness and light, often defining a figure more in terms of stark shadows rather than through actual outlines.
