But your point is taken. Allen SmithUnless you were in the Marvel Bullpen back in the early 60's or have close, personal relationships with people who were that have given you inside information, then it is pure speculation.I could just as easily make the argument that the Marvel Method was less conducive to pages being redrawn because the rules were so much more lax and the artists had far more creative leeway (pun intended!). I certainly doubt that the Marvel Method would have been the success it was if artists were constantly having their work rejected and having to redo the pages.
