Artist August: Emma Rios [Art Feature]

By | Aug 7, 2014 | Columns

It’s funny how the moments in which you discover something that will become important to you are often complete accidents or coincidences. I first saw artwork in the interiors of “Amazing Spider-Man” #677, the first issue of a crossover between “Amazing Spider-Man” and “Daredevil” written by Mark Waid. I only bought the issue because I […]

Artist August: Michael Cho [Art Feature]

By | Aug 6, 2014 | Columns

Sometimes you discover artists in the most random places. For example, my wife used to regularly use the app for FFFFOUND! to look at art and occasionally nerdy things, and while she was doing that, she came across some comic like art. It was a Batman and Robin piece. “Oh! That’s Darwyn Cooke, I think. […]

Artist August: Michael Allred [Art Feature]

By | Aug 5, 2014 | Columns

When I think about what comics looks like, I think of Michael Allred’s art. His work is both fantastical and deeply rooted in the “pop culture” of the real world, allowing his work to exist in this wonderfully odd space. His is a creator that manages to have firm footing in both the creator-owned world […]

Artist August: Tracy Butler [Art Feature]

By | Aug 3, 2014 | Columns

I have a thing for anthropomorphic cats, especially in 1920’s clothes, drinking, shooting tommy guns, and (most importantly) looking at each other exasperatedly. So Tracy Butler’s webcomic Lackadaisy is right up my alley. I love her fascination with words, her black humour, but most of all I love her expressions (in both facial and body […]

Artist August: Massimo Carnevale [Art Feature]

By | Aug 1, 2014 | Columns

To know Massimo Carnevale is to love Massimo Carnevale. If I made a shortlist of most flat out gifted artists that work in comics, Carnevale would be right near the top of the list, and his painted work has notably graced the covers of renowned series like “Y the Last Man” and “Northlanders”, helping make […]

Artist August: Francis Manapul [Art Feature]

By | Aug 30, 2013 | Columns

It is always a chore to put together an art feature, if only because we want to include more, more, more! Some of these pieces were easy choices (the Shazam! piece, a Krypto sketch), whereas others came through an image search and were new to us (the amazing Hal Jordan/Sinestro image). However we found them, […]

By | Aug 30, 2013 | Columns

The fine folks at DC Comics have been kind enough to share these incredible images with us. These are Francis Manapul pages for “The Flash” #23, just released this past Wednesday. In his interview with us, he described his process before passing his pages along to his co-writer/colorist Brian Buccelatto. These are five such pages […]
