Oh yeah!! I absolutely love Alan Davis. I'd have to say he's my second favorite artist. I even own an original art page from when he was on X-Men. Looks great on my wall. He just has a classic touch to his style. It's so clean and...pretty. Check out the images below. I always get excited whenver I hear he has a project coming up. I just want to see him stay on an ongoing series. I don't know if it's a personal choice or a stupid editorial decision but I just need to get my monthly fix of his work. He's one of those artists where if you see even the most basic character drawn, you know it was done by him.
My love for his work goes back to when he was doing Captain Britain. Then there was the original Excalibur with Chris Claremont (which then later he took over the writing too). I liked ClanDestine the first time it was out. I thought the characters and story were great. Sadly it didn't last. This made my weekend when I saw it was coming back. This is definitely a must-have title. Don't miss out.
