Awesome Art Picks: Superman, Wolverine, Elektra and More

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

Each and every week we gather up the best comic book art that you will not see in comics. The reason you won't is because artists often do sketches for fun and commissions and post them on their websites, blogs and Tumblrs. Many artists often arrange commissions through their sites so check them out for more detail if you're looking to own a cool original piece. They also occasionally post their comic convention schedule so you can find out if they'll be in your neck of the woods anytime soon.

Marcio Takara posted this Supergirl sketch (that he did 'for fun') on his Tumblr. He also posted a work-in-progress image and a 'tiny' Wonder Girl.

@sora_thekey: I prefer the cat look over this new look. Or even if they went all the way and reverted him back to his human form pre secondary mutation.

Why doesn't DC make a one shot of Rockabilly Batman? Do like a Gotham by Gaslight Kinda deal. I mean we already have so much Batman out right now. It seems like it would be the perfect time.

Denis Medri's Rockabilly Batman is incredible!!

For some reason, his take on Catwoman in her civies looked like Zooey Deschanel to me.

Nauck and Galloway took the show for me - but a special note for Gomez's Darkseid should be included. Thanks for sharing.

@Fantasgasmic said:

Does it bother anyone else that the Rockabilly Batman video had NO rockabilly music in it?! Rockabilly is blues and country influenced, and generally uptempo. Like Elvis, Johnny Cash (not all his songs tho), Carl Perkins, The Reverend Horton Heat, The Stray Cats.The Adam West Batman theme is more generic 60s rock, Blue Monday is more R&B (maybe Boogie-Woogie), Pipeline is surf rock.

Should've had Blue Suede Shoes, Baby Let's Play House, or Brand New Cadillac, or something along those lines.

Perhaps you should make a video and show us how it should be done?

I don't know how to do video editing or make animatics like that from still images, I just love rockabilly music.

Great assortment, all excellent works!

  1. Even the amazing Phil Noto can't save the visual mess that is The Uncanny X-men, Magneto just looks like they forgot to color him lol
  2. I feel bad for whoever has to ink Brett Booth's work...so much details!
  3. That Robin by Samnee is outstanding
  4. spidey 2099 is always good to see!

LOVE the first two supergirl and wonder girl drawings - so cute! Also I adore that Elektra drawing, the Psylocke one (to die for) and samnee's supergirl redesign! And of course nguyens' genie pic.

Phil noto's new uncanny x-men variant is so spectacular, that it actually makes emma's new costume look reasonable!

@archangel0127: type "awesome art pics" in the search bar with only "topics" highlighted.

The video was pretty cool also Booster, Spidey 2099 and Wildfire(? Been awhile) all the rest are good picks as well.

What is the plan with Rockabilly Batman? Tease us with it until enough people are teased that there are legions tearing at DC's door?

...

Because that's actually kind of genius.
