DC freelance colorist and devoted old-time radio historian (specializing in The Shadow), Tollin explains the craft of comics coloring in storytelling terms: how color families establish rooms and scenes, how the colorist must avoid sabotaging the writer/artist's narrative emphasis, and why Jack Adler taught him to evaluate pages upside-down. He traces his career from Warren to Marvel to DC under Sol Harrison and Jack Adler, and reflects on the current renaissance at DC under Jenette Kahn — new Baxter books, Teen Titans, fresh creative energy — as the most exciting period since the Kirby/Adams era.
