It sounds hyperbolic, but personally, I rank Simmons alongside Eisner in pretty much every respect. Her facial expressions, idiosyncratic page layouts (the way she takes the traditionl european page-of-strips look and plays with it), her use of text, and most of all that seemingly effortless line... Awesome, in the truest sense. So, uh, yeah; I agree with this pick :) I *love* this book. It sounds hyperbolic, but personally, I rank Simmons alongside Eisner in pretty much every respect.
