It's rare and special thing when a drawing has such an impact on you that it changes the way you think. This image by Dave Mazzucchelli was one of those moments for me.

I've been fortunate enough to talk to him twice and in both cases he left a real impression. The last time was a couple of years ago at New York Comic Con. At the time I was really over doing everything in my art, guitar solo-ing every note. He was nice enough to look at some of my work and in a moment he untangled a lot of the mess I'd made for myself.
