"My graphic novels are drawn on Strathmore paper. It is the gold standard for cartoonists."
- James Sturm, Cartoonist and Director of The Center for Cartoon Studies

"Strathmore bristol board is the only bristol board that I have found to endure the abuse of creating comic pages. It holds ink better than any other bristol board on the market. Ink lines in smoother with no bleed, and dries to an indelible finish. From electric erasers to metal nibs, the surface does not tear or give...a dream for all comic book artists."
- Shawn Crystal, Cartoonist/Professor Savannah College of Art and Design

"Strathmore produces paper of highest quality. I've used it to work on my comic book pages for many years. Their paper helps me produce the best quality line work with ink and watercolors. I recommend it."
- Rodney Ramos, Inker for DC Comics and Marvel Comics

"I choose Strathmore because of the high quality of the boards they provide and how well it takes all sorts of medium...ink, watercolors...you name it."
- Tom Hodges, Lucasfilm

"For the look and the technique involved for painted comic art, Strathmore is in a class all its own."
- Mark Romanoski, Illustrator for DC Comics, World of Warcraft, Magic the Gathering

"Whether it's a cover illustration or a quick convention sketch, the most versatile boards for me to use are Strathmore brand. They're the best I've found in terms of quality and reliability, and they support a variety of media. Anywhere I go with my art, Strathmore boards are riding close beside me."
- Chris Moreno, Illustrator, World War Hulk: FrontLine (Marvel), Paul Jenkins' Sidekick (Image), Inkworks sketch card artist
