Comic Illustrations

[Darkside Ron Garvin]

Not sure how many out there enjoy comics, but I for one am a big fan of the artwork involved in some of these modern literary masterpieces (I'll probably catch some crap for that). This thread is for the simple illustrations of your favorite comic heroes. It's not a debate about who is the best or which is the best story; just pictures of your favorite comic book characters showing their levels of bad-assery in a single image. Here's a few of mine to get the ball rolling...


Deadpool




Gambit




Sinister & Apocalypse

At the time, back in 1996 Claudio Castellini was responsible for one of my favourite pieces of "arty" comic work with Silver Surfer 'Dangerous Artifacts'





Reading it back, it still holds up today.

That's an awesome image man. I love the mix of real life with the definative Comic style. Anytime I see comic images that seem to come to life, I get goose bumps. I'll be looking for that comic book to read as well.


Speaking of Realistic look to the Comic world; here's some work from Julie Bell...


Jean Grey as Phoenix





HobGob and Spidey




Silver Surfer (From the Marvel Masterpiece Canvas')





And Storm

Daredevil #500 cover. One of my favourite comic book covers of all time.

I love the Batman Hush storyline and Jim Lee's artwork is just amazing!

Mike Mignola's artwork has this wonderful, beautiful yet eerie and dramatic feel to it.

Julie Bell was always a fave of mine, as well. These images were ingrained in my psyche as a fourteen/fifteen year old as I had collected the full set of both of the X-Men Fleer cards '94 and '95 pack by freaking pack! . Still have them all too!

Edit: You should definitely look for it on the torrent boards at the very least. Apparently Dangerous Artifacts took Claudio close to two years to get done--mostly due to other commitments, but it certainly isn't one of those comics that could have been done in a month. It's truly a hidden masterpiece.

Let's get some mutha fuckin' Simon Bisley up in here!

Nobody does Lobo like The Bis...

His Judge Dredd was none to shabby either.
