Awesome Art Picks: Captain America, Joker, Jubilee 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.

A big piece of news this past week was the fact that Dredd did really well in Blu-ray/DVD sales. Let's keep our fingers crossed we can see a sequel. Check out the sketch Michael Walsh posted on his Tumblr.
