"Dillon will be remembered as one of the best storytellers the comics medium has seen; and rightly so: because all he needed was an eye-level angle, a single point of focus, and his repertoire of facial expressions to take you from expansive sci-fi worlds to demons and vampires to a couple on the bed discussing their relationship— all using the same approach, all telling complete and interesting stories entirely visually. And maybe best of all: he made it seem so effortless; and that's the true thing we'll miss from comics, going forward. It wasn't brash, it wasn't showing off; but what it was was incredibly simple, incredibly economic, with incredibly well-crafted storytelling."
