That is a product that someone must have bought, and placed lovingly on a shelf. I don't even know what else to say about that.

I do: if you're an artist doing anything comic-related and can't meet these guidelines while producing anything in a halfway realistic style, get out of media.

I have two commissions from Rafael Albuquerque and a page from American Vampire. The man does amazing loving work and I wish he did more. His wash skills are loving incredible. I dropped Animal Man midway through the rotworld bullshit and hearing Albuquerque was coming on it immediately put it back at my attention.

Earlier this week I posted Angel Medina's work on "Taking A.I.M.," prologue. Now here's some out of context panels of Dave Hoover's art, from Captain America #440.





Believe it or not, those A.I.M. agents have not been magically shrunk, that's just supposed to be perspective.

What do you guys think of P. Craig Russell?

I forget if I posted his stuff before but I always enjoyed his work and thought he was underrated. His delicate line work and sense of the surreal were always fascinating to look at for me.

Yep. That's Arioch, Lord of Chaos he's summoned in the background there.

PCR is great. For all of the great art in Sandman, his issue (Issue #50, "Ramadan") might have had the best.

PCR gets around a lot and has done a vast amount of work, but what I remember best is some of his really old stuff, his work on Siegfried in all its various publication outlets. I remember viewing and reading these back in their original publication in Epic Illustrated (yes, I'm pretty goddamn old):





This one is more recent but in the same vein:

Yeah, Russel's basically the only guy that can draw Faerie right in my head. I also really admire his efforts he's made at doing, of all things, adapting operas into graphic novels. It's an impressive and ambitious feat. I always regretted that my library had only his Wagnerian adaptations. I really want to read his Pagliacci some day.

I wonder if all of those poses are supposed to be homages. The image of the FF in the Fantasticar is clearly inspired by the cover to Fantastic Four #3, and the Green Goblin seems to be coming from the cover to Amazing Spider Man #39. Both of them are pretty key issues for Silver Age Marvel.





Edit: I knew that image of Kang chilling on the invisible couch looked familiar. It's from Avengers #8.

Mind The Gap sounded interesting (girl in a coma is having an out of body experience and has to solve the mystery of who pushed her in front of a subway train) but descended into hackery with the writer putting in several pages of "here's some oh-so-clever clues I gave you that you might have missed" literally written out in some of the early issues.

The artist tries to use clever perspective, but he isn't really good at it (or foreshortening) which results in stub people:



and for maximum bobbleheadedness:



The art is just bad all around really. Look at that first page. This could have had a neat layout, a one point perspective looking down the stairwell with the character who answers the phone drawn four times so the entire conversation takes place in a single panel splash page. Instead we get a pancaked staircase copy/pasted four times.

Is that the artist from Morning Glories? It looks very similar.

That was my first thought too, but they aren't. Both the Mole Man and the Skrulls come from pin-ups in the back of Fantastic Four Annual #1.

The cover artist, apparently. I really dislike it. It seems the pencils are just barely there to provide vague shapes for the coloring, which is the current industry standard style of five minute watercolors. I wish more comics were black and white. Color nowadays just seems like a crutch for lovely artwork.

I can't find good source pictures, but Iron Man and Thor are both very old, classic images. That's a very Kirby Thor.
