Barry Blair (1954 – January 3, 2010) was a Canadian comics publisher, artist and writer, known for launching Aircel Comics (publisher of titles such as Samurai, Elflord, Dragonforce, and Men in Black) in the 1980s. From early on, Blair's art style was influenced by the comics he had seen living in East Asia, at a time when manga and other Asian comics were largely unknown in North America. His art was typically characterized by childlike figures, and included nudity and partial nudity. This continued into the erotica which became his main focus later in his career, and these attributes were a common criticism of his work.

  • バリー・ブレア(英: Barry Blair、1954年 - 2010年1月3日)は、カナダのコミック出版者・漫画家・画家・作家。1980年代に(1994年廃業、コミックの"Samurai"・"Elford"・"Dragonforce"・『』など)を立ち上げたことでも知られる。ブレアの画風は、その活動初期から、彼が東アジアで触れた漫画・コミックから影響を受けたものであった。なお、当時の北米では、日本の漫画やアジア圏の漫画はほとんど受容されていなかった。ブレアの作品の特徴として、ヌードやセミヌードを含む、子どものような人物像がある。これは、彼の後期作品の主眼となったエロティカでも同様であった。ブレアに対する主だった批判はこういった作風に向けられた。 (ja)
