Another Re-master- Kevin Nowlan

I first became aware of Kevin Nowlan's work when he took over Moon Knight from Bill Sienkiewicz. I was disappointed that Sienkiewicz was leaving the book, but this new guy's art intrigued me. He cemented me as a permanent fan a few years later with his work on a mid--80s Batman and the Outsiders annual- pencils, inks, colors and a painted cover (and probably letters- I'm not sure)! He's still doing excellent work- check out his full art job on a recent Hellboy one shot- and remains a constant source of inspiration. I'd love to color his work on a story one day, but the digital coloring he's been doing is so good, I'm sure I'll never get the chance.

Holiday Greetings

A couple of quick holiday jobs that were fun to color up-

Toy Box

Drawn with animated acumen by Alex Sera-

John Buscema -- Conan!

I said it before and I'll say it again-- no one inked big John better than Big John. His Conan is classic anatomy and composition  with no fancy tricks and usually a strong single light source that sets all that wonderful musculature in relief.

Jose Luis Garcia Lopez

This is the next installment in the continuing series I call "Coloring My Comics Heroes". Garcia Lopez is a draftman's draftsman- I loved his drawing as a kid and I love his drawing now. His color work is also a treat- check out his Star Raiders graphic novel or a number of DC digest covers he painted in the 80s. I had this comic as a kid-- of course it's long gone now- and I seem to recall the interior art being done by Walt Simonson and Dick Giordano, but I may be wrong on the Simonson part...
