  Inker - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The inker is one of the two line artists in a traditional comic book, or graphic novel.
After the penciller gives a drawing (or copy of the drawing) to the inker, the inker uses fl ink, usually India ink, to produce refined fl outlines over the rough pencil lines.
The inker is usually responsible for every fl line on the page, except for letters, which are handled by a letterer.

That is, the inker roll is in contact with the plate cylinder only during printing revolutions of the plate and impression cylinders and is inhibited from contact with the plate cylinder during non-printing revolutions, thereby preventing any re-inking of the plate cylinder.
To accomplish the foregoing, an inker roll is mounted for pivotal movement about a pivotal axis enabling movement of the inker roll toward and away from the plate cylinder for engagement with and disengagement from the plate cylinder.
The contact line between the edge of the doctor blade and the surface of the inker roll lies along a tangent of the inker roll such that the relative location of contact between the doctor blade and inker roll remains substantially constant during movement of the inker roll toward and away from the plate cylinder.

 What Does an Inker Do?
In other words: while the penciller must use his (or her) creativity to imagine and realize the situations put forth by the writer in the script; the inker must use his (or her) creativity to dream up a way to represent the subjects drawn in pencil and complete the artwork in ink.
An inker has to consider texture, light source, the underlying form of an object, distance from the observer, and a few other things before putting brush (or pen) to paper.
In general, An inker should enhance the quality (as it relates to publishing/printing, and -if possible- artistic merit) of the pencilled art-work without changing the feel or style of the work.

For the most part though, in my humble opinion, I believe that the inker is responsible for the latter 50% of the art on that page.
Some pencilers will argue this to the grave but others are able to put their faith in their inker and embrace what that "embellesher" brings to the table.
The penciler should be able to swallow enough pride to let the inker do their job while, at the same time, the inker should respect the penciler and his/her work enough to know when to push but, more importantly, when to pull; to work "within" the pencils instead of "over" them.

 TIM TOWNSEND @ ADELAIDE COMICS AND BOOKS
From his very first days, working briefly as a background inker [an artist that assists an inker with backgrounds as well as secondary figures, etc], he displayed work that was rich with promise.
If the droves of fans really understood that every single line they're looking at in their favourite (Inked) books were placed there by an inker and could see what the pencils looked like before hand, I think the THUD from their collective jaws hitting the floor would be loud enough to.......well.....it would be really loud.
Outside of Gene Colan I can't think of anyone who's pencils can't be enhanced by an inker - a good inker that is. Now it appears that some publishers aren't that fussed with inking, sketch covers are everywhere and some comics have gone straight from pencils to the colouring stage.

 Inker Submission Guidelines   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
An inker's job is to provide depth to a two-dimension medium through the use of fls to create shadows and differentiate line weights for proper distancing.
Most inkers tend to use "sable hair" or comporable brushes as well as the now popular repidograph.
The most popular ink for all of these methods is fl "india ink." Also, since nobody is perfect, for corrective measures, most tend to steer clear of white-out and instead use "Pro White" paint or in some instances even an "electric eraser" although those can be expensive and very tedious for larger areas.

 Alan Davis Internet Junction: Old Message Board: Best inker   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
The only other inker who's worked over Davis's pencils is Joe Rubenstein and, though he's a capable inker, he doesn't come close to either Neary or Farmer.
He's in the same class as Rubinstein; they're both basically workhorses who can ink a lot of stuff, although Mark Farmer seems to be doing a lot too and still doing a great job with Davis's pencils (his inks over anyone else's pencils, except maybe Adam Hughes, are fairly standard).
Now that I think of it, I do remember another inker but I also forget who it was.
