Bob Almond
This week, we're thrilled to welcome legendary comic book inker Bob Almond! With over three decades of experience for Marvel, DC, and independent publishers, Bob takes us deep into the process of transforming rough pencils into print-ready illustrations. From his early days working on Warlock and the Infinity Watch to high-profile projects including Black Panther, Annihilation: Conquest - Quasar, Archer & Armstrong: First Impressions, and Heroes for Hire, he shares candid stories about collaborating with industry giants while championing the crucial role inkers play in the creative process. We also explore his founding of the Inkwell Awards in 2008, an organization dedicated to promoting the art of inking and recognizing outstanding achievements in the field.
You can follow Bob through his official site, almondink.com, or on Instagram @almondink. Be sure to also follow the Inkwell Awards at inkwellawards.com, and support their Kickstarter by May 15 here: http://kck.st/4jT8fKP.
