Random list of artists whom I believe make the best eye candy!
Love this guy! Love him SO much!! Ever since I saw Impulse #1, I've just adored his style. Why hasn't his style been adapted into an animated series? It's bold, bright & bombastic. Love it!
I own Skottie Young! Well... I own SOME Skottie Young. I'd own a whole lot more if I could afford it! This guy's art is off the wall! The passion & intensity that goes into it is barely visible in print, but up close & in person who can appreciate the amount of effort & hard work that goes into it. Bloody legend!!
It's strange how tastes change. When I first saw his art on X-Force #44 I hated it. I genuinely hated it. But now, I think the fact that it is so different from the usual comic book style has made this more endearing over the years. And I highly recommend his Angel: Revelations mini series to anyone & everyone. The art is so detailed, ornate & unique. It blows my mind!
As much as I love Mike Choi's art, there's no denying the power that his partner in crime (and lady-wife-to-be) adds. Her painting is absolutely stunning!
I'm lucky enough to own some Mike Choi. The grace of his pencils is simply breath-taking.
I own Bucky too... well, just a page of his work. Loved his work since the first previews for Generation X. Long LONG time fan. I am so chuffed to own some of his work!
The best way to describe this lady's art is 'Deceptive'. At first, it looks so simple. Then you see the detail, characterisations, and pure magic!
We seriously need a photo of Mr Tolibao. Anyway, he makes good eye-candy. His Psylocke mini series & the X-Men Second Coming Hellbound 3-parter were simply gorgeous.
"We're babies of the 80's, baby!"
Old skool roolz! His art on the New Mutants was something I'd never seen before in my life. At the time I wasn't sure what to make of it, but now it is the stuff of legends. There's just not enough of his work to keep me happy.
The world is so cruel... Why else are we only given the delights of his magnificent work only on the covers to comics, but never on the inside?
The 'other Ben'. Or should that be 'The Aussie Ben'? either way he's a sharp dresser and an amazing artist. Again, I'm lucky enough to own him... well, some of his work.
A friend of mine once said that Bret Blevins made the New Mutants look like pixies. I told him that he'd missed the point. It was young, vibrant and as energetic as the characters & stories.
Some of the most fantastic work on the X-Men, and the only reason I went out of my way to buy issues of Fantastic Four. He needs to work more; especially on titles I buy regularly!
He who draws the perfect women... Don't ya just wanna adopt him :)
Pure classic. He's like the finest single malt; just as fresh & tasteful as when it was bottled. Thank you for your amazing work on X-Factor & more, Mr Simonson!
Not one, but two people. The Gurihiru gals have a wonderfully easy access style that I absolutely adore!
I was so sad when I learnt he had passed away. His art was bold & dynamic. His art will always be loved.
The Maxx was my first step outside the cosy confines of Marvel & DC. What looks like a steroid-pumped lunatic in a purple suit turned into an amazing (and sometimes unsettling) story of the mind. Here is an artistic genius who knows how to craft a perfectly rounded story with great characterisation.
Responsible for many classic annuals & the creation of a couple of my favourite characters :)
Whether you like his style or not, there's no doubting that Kaare Andrews always provides art that is energetic & 100% original!
A very detailed style from a great artist. Instantly fell in love with his style when he worked on Wolverine many years ago.
How many ways can you say, 'Pure Genius'?
Such graceful & elaborate linework. Such a stunning artist.
I just have to pay respects to the man who created the Top Cow look. A tragic loss at such an early age.
It amuses me that the artist who took over the reigns of a zany little title like Impulse has come to be a highly respected man to turn to for such big titles like X-Men & Batman. He's currently DC's man, but I still loved his work on Marvel too... and guess what, I own some of him too!! My first piece of genuine comic artwork, from a fantastic issue of Impulse. Memorable stuff... great talent!
There was a stage in my life when it became an obsession to own every issue & variant of Kabuki. To this day, it's still one of the most beautiful and moving stories in print.
He created the New Mutants... What more do you need??
The epitome of fun fun fun!! Here's an artist who can drawn serious & emotional as well as high-octane action. It is his work that created such an impact on Young Justice.
His run on X-Force was one of my favourites. Developing his own series The Tenth was brave, with it's ups & downs (and a little too much T&A if you ask me), but he's evolved into a resilient, reliable & popular artist.
Slow & unreliable. However, he is undoubtedly responsible or many of my favourite issues of Uncanny X-Men & the short-lived (but exciting) Battlechasers. Great art. Lousy comic book artist.
