Patrick Zircher was the second-most prolific V&V illustrator. If you had to pick just ONE thing that you you like best about his artwork, what would it be?

A showcase of V&V covers appears here: http://paratime.ca/v_and_v/vav_covers.html

Zircher is a great artist.  I always thought his V&V stuff (and other RPG stuff, like Champions) was far superior to any of his work in comics, for whatever reason.

I always liked Patrick Zircher's cover art on Alone into the Night. Of course, I liked the scene even better the first time around ... as John Byrne's cover to Alpha Flight #11. See for yourself:

Yes, it was an awesome homage!

Just a few days ago I saw that Zircher was one of the artists for the cover on a mainstream title, so he's still working in comics.

Oh, and for those that are interested, it's worth noting that you can see what Patrick Zircher looks and talks like by getting the more extensive Iron Man DVD (probably the 2-disc version with all of the special features).  They have a featurette on there where they interview some famous Iron Man artists, and Zircher is one of them.  He talks about his daughter's art now and some other cool stuff.

What I like best about Zircher is that he drew those pdf counters for Bill W.'s two modules. And that they're available from FGU for free.
