A belated happy birthday to Garry Leach (September 19th)! Leach - TopicsExpress



          

A belated happy birthday to Garry Leach (September 19th)! Leach is best known as the first artist on Alan Moores revival of Marvelman in Warrior. His work on Marvelman proved highly popular but due to his slow pace of working, he left art duties to be replaced by Alan Davis. For Davis first few stories Leach worked as inker to allow Davis to settle into the strip. Leachs work on Marvelman remained the prototype, as Davis has insisted that my ‘style’ on the series was simply a bargain-basement attempt to imitate what Garry had done. Leach and Alan Moore also created Warpsmith for Warrior together; Warpsmith featured in its own strip and eventually became a supporting character in Marvelman. With Dave Elliott, Leach set up Atomeka Press in 1988. Their first title was the anthology title, A1, which included new Warpsmith material by Moore and Leach.
