You've listed off everything he collected, while I was masturbating to ROM and WEST COAST AVENGERS. Also worth mentioning, it appears you had my brother’s taste in comic books back in the day.

And it's a shame Mazzucchelli's art is often eclipsed by Miller's writing in BORN AGAIN. It's stunning. This has been Mazzucchelli's year though. His graphic novel ASTERIOS POLYP is absolutely breathtaking. And I hope he finally becomes a name we namedrop more often when we list off the greats.

The Miller DD was a legend even in its own time, but I was busy with CONAN THE BARBARIAN, X-MEN, and DC's horror comics, and never got to know the character. Mazzucchelli is himself here. I really loved his work on BATMAN: YEAR ONE, but having just re-read it (I bought a copy for my son to show him that old school is the only school), I can see the shameless editorial pressures put on the artist to be both Miller AND Jansen on the page. Somehow, he manages to do this while still maintaining his own identity, like the guy at the Hallowe'en party who keeps pulling his mask down to show you it's really him. Plus, when I see that yellowed newsprint, I get all itchy to skip work and just nerd out with my Silvers and Bronzes.
