* '''Oppose''' per Lesnail's argument. [[User:Dimadick|Dimadick]] ([[User talk:Dimadick|talk]]) 14:38, 6 July 2019 (UTC)

* '''Keep ''' per above. There aren't many comics people here, & ideally they should be in a sub-cat - doesn't a comics one exist? [[User:Johnbod|Johnbod]] ([[User talk:Johnbod|talk]]) 16:05, 6 July 2019 (UTC)

** '''Comment ''' It would be rather unusual. In comic books, typically one person serves as the writer and provides the [[Script (comics)]], another serves as the main [[comics artist]]/[[penciller]] and provides the illustrations, a third one serves as the [[inker]] who retraces and finalizes the drawings, a fourth one is the [[colorist]] who adds colors to the black-and-white works of the penciller and inker, and a fifth one serves as [[tettererletterer]] responsible for the [[speech balloon]]. Most writers don't contribute to the artwork of a story, and most artists don't contribute to the script. The exceptions include people who filled more than role in the production process, such as [[Carl Barks]] (both wrote and illustrated most of his stories from 1943 to 1966, wrote stories for other artists during his semi-retirement), [[Jack Kirby]] (mostly credited as a penciller from the 1930s to the 1960s, started both writing and illustrating his own stories in the 1970s), [[Bill Everett]] (mostly wrote and illustrated his own stories from the 1930s to the 1950s, mainly credited as a writer in the 1960s), and [[Steve Ditko]] (mostly credited as a penciller in his hired work for various publishing houses, writer for some of his more "personal" works such as [[Mr. A]]).
