Sequential Sunday: Al Williamson

by John Mueller· December 14, 2009· in Sequential Sunday· 0 comments tags: Al Williamson, Blade Runner, Empire Strikes Back, Marvel, Return of the Jedi, Star Wars
Since writing my last Sequential Sunday entry about the supremely talented artist Mark Schultz, I have been giving much thought to his influences and what the work of those artists have meant to me as well. The name that kept entering my mind the most, one whose work I’ve admired since childhood, is that of Al Williamson. Even though Williamson has had a long and highly esteemed career spanning several decades, the work of his that invariably jumps to my mind is the one that I was exposed to first – his comic book movie adaptations, specifically, the 80’s editions for Marvel of The Empire Strikes Back, Return of the Jedi and Blade Runner.
