Today brings Artist August to a close, and what better way to do that than with “Flash Gordon” artist Evan “Doc” Shaner. Long someone that every artist has fawned over for his clean, powerful art with a pitch perfect ability for delivering a story, with his work on “Flash Gordon” we’ve found an artist find a project that has matched his sensibilities in a way that makes everyone realize what many did long ago: that “Doc” Shaner is one of the absolute best artists in comics.
They say a picture is worth a thousand words though, and what’s the point of me telling you what you already know, or something that you’re going to find out soon. “Doc” Shaner ain’t nuthin’ to fuck with, to quote the characters from his work with Nate Cosby, “Buddy Cops”. Find out below in an art feature that shows off some of his very best work, and once you check that out, make sure to pick up “Flash Gordon” to see not just great art, but one of the most fun comics around today. You won’t be sorry.
