The Natural Posted June 17, 2022 Share Posted June 17, 2022 Shit news to wake up to. Batman: The Long Halloween is my #2 Batman book of all time and Spider-Man: Blue is in my top ten Spider-Man books with the great aetwork of Tim Sale. This sucks. Condolences to Tim Sale's family and friends at this sad time. RIP Tim Sale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheVileOne Posted June 17, 2022 Share Posted June 17, 2022 (edited) Sale was a brilliant artist. He really knew how to capture the essence of characters IMO and make them look extraordinary. He didn't draw just one seminal story, he did many. Edited June 17, 2022 by TheVileOne 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Natural Posted June 17, 2022 Share Posted June 17, 2022 (edited) I'm going to have to check out Superman for All Seasons. Is Loeb/Sale the only creative team to write great stories for all the big three: Batman, Spider-Man and Superman?

Matt D Posted June 17, 2022 Share Posted June 17, 2022 Sale was exceptional. Any of us could write a comic, having no experience, and I bet Tim Sale would have made it not just work but be great. That's how good he was. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaedmc Posted June 17, 2022 Share Posted June 17, 2022 Agreed. Some of the more celebrated works I think are just okay stories, but Tim Sale turned them into classics. He so strongly imbued each page with so much mood and flavor - just a brilliant artist. Very sad to see him go. Back in the 90's Gambit was the edgy hot X-Man, and I kinda dug how Tim Sale made him a little more rat like. He still retained some lovable rapscallion qualities, but that troubled part of Gambit's life was present in his appearance and it made him more tragic and sympathetic. I don't think anyone has ever managed to repeat that when drawing Remy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
