DescriptionScott's style perfectly suited Daredevil back then. I couldn't wait to gather my change to have enough to buy each issue. His pencils worked very well with several great inkers. Bud LaRosa was the inker for several DD issues including this one. I'm sure that even though Scott's art style has changed, he would easily give us another memorable run.Updated January 8, 2014. A detailed explanation provided by Scott McDaniel. Back in the day, using red lines for special effects was a great help during the color process. The coloring process was very different then than it is today. Back then, a colorist hand-colored reduced photocopies of the line art using markers, inks, colored pencils, watercolors, or whatever. Each color was then specifically tagged to specify its RGB code. Daredevil's suit could have been tagged as R138 G6 B22. EVERY color on the page was similarly tagged. These hand-colored and heavily annotated pages were sent off to the printer who implemented them on the actual printing plates. Today colorists work directly in Photoshop or other image editing applications, completely eliminating this early, multi-step process. In this instance on this page, all these red lines were to be held out in a specific color (in this case, yellow), not in black, in order to better emulate fire. In other instances, the red lines were used to define the separation of two elements that were to be separated by color only. In the very graphic style of line art used, often a foreground object did not have a complete contour rendered but instead used a large area of contrasting negative space behind it to mostly define it. In those remaining areas where the foreground object was not contrasted, and there was no black line wanted, a red line was used to show where the color transition occurred. Then, after color was applied, those red lines were removed. It was a way to achieve a graphic color interpretation of the highly graphic line art. Thank you Scott!

Great page D! I agree with you that Scott could easily slip back into a DD book. Loved this run with Bud's inks!

Another cool page from Scott! Do you know why he used red ink on certain parts, though?
