Awesome Art Picks: Jean Grey, Catwoman, Batman and More

The coolest comic book art you won't see in comics.

Each week we gather up the coolest comic art on the internet that will never appear in actual comic books. The reason is, artists often do sketches for fun or for commissions and post them on their websites, Tumblrs, Twitter pages and blogs. They're too good to go unnoticed. Many of these artists even offer commissions through their websites so be sure to check them out.

Pretty much any time Denis Medri posts something on his Deviant Art page, you can bet it's going to be stellar. He's been doing a lot of character redesigns and this week we have a couple more steampunk versions as well as a western take as well. Be sure to check his page as he mentioned he'll be taking commissions soon.

Terry Dodson posted some SDCC commissions on his Deviant Art page. It should be noted that not all of them are of female characters. Just most of them are.

What are your thoughts on Catwoman's costume in The Dark Knight Rises? Cameron Stewart said he hated it at first but likes it after watching the movie. Here's a sketch he posted on his Tumblr.

Who besides me is missing Stephanie Brown? Agnes Garbowska posted a couple commissions featuring Stephanie (one as Nightwing) as well as one of Rapunzel and Pascal on her Tumblr.

Steampunk DD is really cool. I like how Freddie Williams colored the Infinity Gems in Thanos' gauntlet but left everything else B&W;.

Great stuff from Dodson and Nguyen as per usual. Pixie is excellent also, because she's Welsh!!!

But the stand out for me this week is Williams' Gambit, that is simply superb.

Cannot get enough of Denis Medri's work! If Marvel or DC don't give him a period series soon, something is very wrong with the world :)

@hunter5024 Try contacting her on Twitter @AgnesGarbowska or do a search for her regular online site to see I there's contact info (I'd do it but I'm typing this from my phone). Maybe even check her Tumblr do info.

Anybody else think Ben Templesmith's sketches and comicbook art have always been kind of kid-like, in a deranged kind of way? Not to say it's not good, he's one of my favourites and his art is instantly recognisable.

"KAL-EL YOU ARE THE LAST SON OF KRYPTON, WEAR GLASSES AND THEY WILL NEVER KNOW" - I cracked up on this bit.

Denis Medri and Terry Dodson were my favorite this week.

What is Catwoman holding in her hand? It looks like something dirty if you know what I mean.

Love it ALL! Terry Dodson kicks so much ass....love his rendition of Cap, need I say anything about his female characters? As always, just wow!

Mayhew's Batman is fantastic. The Steampunk versions, Pixie, everything else, just wonderful to see. That Superman by Freddie E. Williams II is off the chain. Nice to see Ben Templesmith's renditions of comic characters, nice departure from his Zombies and Horror art ( which is ALWAYS top-notch).
