I've been using this pen for several years now and swear by it for inking comics. The pen itself is durable and looks beautiful (it's at least as pretty in its design as some Pelikan fountain pens), and the ink is not only very solid black but also smear- and bleed-proof on every paper I've tried so far.
One minor quibble with the pen is that I'd sometimes have too much flow of ink to the brush - especially if a new cartridge had just been installed. But I learned to control and compensate for this in time. Even with this occasional issue, it still earns an easy five starts in my book.
The real magic is in what it does to the quality of my inking: The lines come alive in a way I can never achieve with a multiliner. I'd occasionally use a traditional brush and bottle of ink for even greater expressiveness, but that setup is a pain to carry, and after a while I switch back to the brush pen as a golden compromise between artistry and convenience.
Oh, and the ink cartridges last a surprisingly long time.

I am a professional freelance artist and carry this pen in a drawing kit around with me. This pen is amazing... dries quickly, makes deep dark lines, and is smear proof and waterproof when dry. I know a lot of comic book artists use it for inking their lines and I can see why. Great for calligraphy, cartooning, or just sketching. I HIGHLY recommend it. It uses fine bristles instead of a felt tip that will wear out easily. I know I will be using it on a regular basis to draw with.
The only thing of note is that when you just get the pen or are replacing the cartridge you have to press mighty hard on the end of the cartridge to hear the "pop" sound that signifies that the seal is broken and the ink is flowing. Once it flows it holds up well.

Tip has real bristles (not felt), and ink is waterproof once left to dry overnight. Best brush pen for cartoonists.

pocket brush that looks like a pen.
Does what it says it would do . Very compact and travels well. Priced right. Works like a small brush with black India Ink.

brush pen
I really like this pen. At first it was a little difficult to use because it is harder to control the flow of the ink but with a little practice I almost have it figured out.

My favorite pen brush
Even though, I use regular brushes with my sumi ink. The Pentel has suddenly become my goto brush to handle inking and I'm addicted with it.

Great markmaking but...
The ink flows out too slowly for my drawing style. You can get great detail and a wonderful variety of brushstrokes from the tip of this brush. Read more

The Inking brush I've been looking for!!!
I've been searching for a long time for something to use for varied and dynamic lines. This can go from as thin as a micron pen to about 1/3 inch thick. Read more

Description was different than I had planned.
I misunderstood the usage of this product. I believed it was supposed to be more like the Pentel Fountain Pen with refills.

Great Ink!
Versatile would be the perfect word to describe the amazing brush pen. With the right angle and brush stroke, many line widths and lengths can be created. Read more

Great product, but needs more refills.
While this pen is absolutely perfect there is a small detail about it that should be noted:
It consumes TONS of ink. Read more
