First Look: Batman #694 Art

Check out the before and after images!

Check out the before and after images! 



 
I have always been a big fan of Tony Daniel's art. While I do feel that his best work is not done when he is both penciler as well as the writer on a book (that is A LOT of work for just one person,) I do think that he is great at what he does, especially when he does the covers for comics. If you are not already aware, Daniel is both writer and penciler on the current 'Batman' title, which focuses on the current Batman, Dick Grayson. Check out the fantastic spread from the upcoming issue of Batman #694 by Daniel which is set to hit stores this Wednesday 12/16, courtesy of The Source. Also, take a look at the penciled image before the inks and colors below, courtesy of Daniel's blog. How are some of the ways the adding colors changes the image?

I still think there's something up with his hand here. I don't know what.

@Babs:
The fingers, they would be really long when he opens up his hand.

Loving the art
Posted by FoxxFireArt

This is an incredible cover image, but he looks a bit too weepy and the hand is a tad too long. If you extend his fingers. It appears his hand would be as large as his head.
 
I love the detail in the gargoyles and the coloring really makes it pop.

@FoxxFireArt:
I believe this is the interior artwork. And it looks so weak and pathetic btw.
