Jackson “Butch” Guice (1961–2025) Butch was a great comics artist. His storytelling was wonderful. But he was also a great illustrator. Any one of his panels was a composed work of art, full of detail and character and gorgeous linework. His work was masterfully old-school, without ever being old-fashioned. As if that wasn’t enough, he was simply one of the nicest people I’ve ever worked with. I miss him already. —Dan Abnett When you study Butch’s storytelling, you see outstanding naturalistic realism; clean, genuine draftsmanship; and taut, cinematic storytelling that was almost terse, and definitely no-nonsense. It wasn’t showy or stylized. It resisted all the flashy tropes and trends that date so much of ‘90s comics art in retrospect. It was staunchly professional, timeless, and always annoyingly great. —Jon Bogdanove I was always impressed with Jackson’s draftsmanship...appreciating his clear reverence for the comic book artists we all loved—but the master comic strip artists we all should have loved, as well! My favorite work of Jackson’s is Resurrection Man. Wish there was more favorite work coming, old chum. —Mike Carlin I was lucky enough to work with Butch Guice on Resurrection Man in 1997. It was our first ongoing DC series, and it wouldn’t have been anywhere near as good without his stunning blend of realism and superhero dynamism, which gave the book its distinct voice. —Andy Lanning Butch and I were friends, colleagues, and studio mates, and he was a constant inspiration to me. Long before I knew him, I was following his work, which made it all the more amazing when we would collaborate on something...and we did, numerous times...but we really should have been doing it for at least the next 30 years or so. —Mike Perkins For more quotes remembering Butch, please visit: dc.com/remembering-butch-guice
