I admire Jim Lee’s structure of detail and drawing within inside of the little or midsize comic panels.įrank Miller is famous for his classic illustrations of the Sin City series, Dark Returns, Batman Year One, 300, Roninand his run on Daredevil. What I love about Jim Lee’s muscular illustrations is his dynamic and wide penciling styles that can cover a entire page. Sadly in December 2010 DCshutdown Wildstorm Productions and the rest of the Wildstorm characters will be in the the New 52 timeline. Jim Lee would often combined the two universes together to create a Wildstorm comic universe. Wildstorm was the home of many Jim Lee creator owned characters such as WildC.A.TS, Stormwatch. Jim Lee once was over a publishing company that was once owned by DC Comics called Wildstorm Productions. Jim Lee is a Korean comic artist that is won numerous awards such as the Harvey Award, Inkpot Award and Wizard Fan Arts. Describing Jim Lee’s work is like envisioning a comic book action comic to life just inside of a comic book. If you read comic books such as Batman Hush, the 90s Uncanny X-Men series, Superman: For Tomorrow, Justice League New 52, and his creator owned work of WildC.A.T.S and Gen 13 among many others. I recognized Lee Bermejo art work of his standalone DC villain comic book stories such as the acclaimed JOKERGraphic Novel and the Lex Luthor: Man of Steel Series. The describing Lee Bermejo’s art is like describing urban life of he dirty dark streets of New York Detroit, and Chicago. The art of Lee Bermejo is like walking through a dark alley, going through a mysterious nightclub and you have to constantly watch over your backside hoping there isn’t a man holding a gun behind you. I recommend reading and looking at the art work of Shawn Martianbrough of Thief of Thieves, Luke Cage Noir and the Losers. You might have recognized Shawn Martianbrough’s work on graphic novels such as Thief of Thieves, Challengers of Unknown, Losers ( Vertigo comics), and Luke Cage Noir. The inking shadows captures a tone like you are watching a crime drama that could be seen on a TV show or a movie. I like how Martianbrough’s use of inks which he uses it to feel in the shadows on the faces, buildings and clothing. But aside discussing my first interaction with Shawn Martianbrough the reason why I enjoy Shawn Martianbrough’s artwork is because the classic noir mixed with dynamic comic book action.I much prefer noir art and every time I see Shawn Martianbrough’s artwork I enter a world that is gritty and pulpy. I can’t remember exactly what Shawn Martianbrough said to me 2 years ago since I talk to him at Comic Con but I remember that he said to me that I should build my self confidence and that t I need to focus on one thing that I am passionate to do and I need to improve on that. I’ve met Shawn Martianbrough at Gem City Comic Con and being the shy guy that I am I was kinda nervous to talk to him face to face. Shawn Martianbrough is one of the artist that inspired me to become a graphic novel inkier when I was in a young age being a inspired comic artist. If love Alex Maleev work and enjoy Micheal Bendis books I truly recommend those Marvel comics that I listed. You might recognized Alex Maleev art from many of Micheal Bendis work of Daredevil, Halo: Uprising, Mighty Avengers, New Avengers #26-#50, New Avengers: Illuminati, Secret Invasion: Dark Reign, Spider Woman #1-7, and Moon Knight #1-12. When you read the Micheal Bendis run on Daredevil you can sense the dramatic and dark mood in Alex Maleev’s work which brings out the dark character out of Daredevil. Alex Maleev loves to work alongside with comic writer Brian Micheal Bendis. I recognized his work from Marvel comics but I enjoy the art style when reading the independent the IconComic series Scarlet. I really enjoyed his art work for many Marvel characters such as Daredevil, Wolverine, The Avengers and Moon Knight. His most recognizable art work is his involvement with Marvelcomics. Alex Maleev uses water colors in his illustrations which gives out a eerie mood to the characters that he paints. The reason why I enjoy Alex Maleev art is because it has a hunting feel to it. Reading comic books and Graphic Novels for 15 years of my life span I would like to list my Top Ten Comic Book Artist on. When I turn the page and read the pages from any Graphic Novel I can instantly recognized the art and the artist that drew in each comic panel.
