“Manga Studio is my favorite digital art software for drawing comics because it has an amazing range of natural feeling, fully customizable pens and brushes that are expressive and accurate,” said Dave Gibbons. “I particularly love the perspective ruler tool which, along with the many other specialized tools, is a huge time-saver. The ability to import and incorporate both 2-D and 3-D image references is a comic book artist’s dream come true.”
Dave Gibbons has worked in comics since 1973. Cutting his teeth on undergrounds and fanzines, he became a frequent contributor to Britain’s 2000AD illustrating “Harlem Heroes,” “Dan Dare” and co creating “Rogue Trooper.” Since then he has drawn and written for most comics publishers on both sides of the Atlantic. His work embodies a vast range of subjects and styles such as “Dr. Who,” “Superman,” “Batman,” “Green Lantern,” “Predator,” “Aliens,” the Hugo Award-winning “Watchmen” with writer Alan Moore, “Give me Liberty” and “Martha Washington Goes to War” with Frank Miller. His semi-autobiographical “The Originals” won an Eisner Award in 2005.
