Each week we gather up the coolest comic book art we can find that will never appear in actual comics. The reason they won't is because artists often do sketches for fun or commissions and post them on their sites, blogs, Tumblrs and Twitter pages. You can sometimes even arrange for commissions through those pages so be sure to check them out.
Philip Tan hasn't been updating his Tumblr but has been posting a bunch of sketches on his Facebook page. Check these out.

I came across this image of Superman on Adam Pollina's Facebook page. What has he been doing lately? He's using this as his "cover photo."
While Brett Booth is busy drawing pictures for Scott Lobdell, he's also posting the occasional sketch on his blog. Here's a couple he posted this week of Redbird (Damian) and Wonder Woman.
Mike McKone has posted a few new colored sketches on his Twit Pic page.
Marcio Takara has been posting some recent commissions on his Tumblr.
Speaking of commissions, Chris Burnham was at the Wizard Chicago convention last week. He posted some more commissions on Twitter including Damian and Bat-Cow!
While we're on the subject of Damian, Ron Salas posted some sketches on his site including future Damian as Batman.
Lots of Damian this week. Dustin Nguyen posted a sketch of him as well on his Tumblr, along with one of Stephanie Brown.
What about Joker? Michael Walsh posted a sketch of him on his Tumblr.
Mahmud Asrar also posted a pic of Joker on Instagram, along with one of Supergirl. (Did you read SUPERGIRL #12 this week?)
Daniel HDR has been taking pre-NYCC commissions on his Tumblr and Instagram. You can also find out more information on his blog here on Comic Vine.
Skottie Young has done a few Daily Sketches on his website this week. It's always interesting to see what he decides to do.
Jeremy Roberts posted a New 52 Justice League image on his Deviant Art page inspired by Michael Turner's cover to JUSTICE LEAGUE OF AMERICA #12.
And here's a non-colored version:
Todd Nauck is doing a Captain Marvel pic for a NYCC charity auction. Here's an early look at it plus a couple others posted on his Tumblr.
Just as there was lots of Damian this week, the same is with Joker. Here's another Robert Atkins posted on his blog, along with a Venom and Lady Jaye.
Paolo Rivera posted a nice Mary Jane commission on his blog. And even though this Daredevil image is from the cover to issue #20, it's always great to get a glimpse at the original art.
Joel Gomez also did a Daredevil piece and posted it on his Tumblr.
Agnes Garbowska posted a couple recent commissons of Spider-Man and Robin on her Tumblr this week.
Ben Templesmith posted some more art on his Instagram account.
Time for another Batman sketch. Here's one from Freddie Williams II posted on his Twit Pic page.
Chris Giarrusso showed his version of Dracula on his website this week. He also posted a Tribute Tuesday, which is actually a Kickstarter-exclusive cover for Joe Martino's THE MIGHTY TITAN.
Last week we saw Denis Medri's 80s High School Star Wars redesigns. Here's one last one featuring Jabba, Emperor Palpatine and Grand Moff Tarkin. He also did a tribute piece for Elvis along with 70s vigilante style redesign of Punisher. I have a feeling we'll see more of those next week.
Our last piece is another tribute. As you know, Joe Kubert passed last Sunday. Here's a nice piece Francesco Francavilla posted on his blog.
