Marvel Young Guns 2014

[NelsonAI]

The latest future star artists according to Marvel are:

 

David Marquez

Mahmud Asrar

Nick Bradshaw

Ryan Stegman

Sara Pichelli

Valero Schiti

 

They will all be at a special panel this weekend at Special Edition NYC comic con.

 

I suspect these artists may start asking for a premium for their art if they haven't done so already. .

 

Based on Marvel's track record, only 50% of their young guns list achieve superstar status.

 

Thoughts?

 

Cheers!

Mahmud Asrar is one that catches the eye. Have also heard quite a few friends in the UK rave about him

Picking Nick Bradshaw as a future star artist is like predicting who is going to win the Super Bowl 3 seconds before it is over.

 

His stuff is amazing

Agreed. Stegman isn't far off either.

Ryan Stegman is an amazing artist, love his Spiderman work

[unearthed_name-migration]

Asrar is not that young anymore though. Hahahahahaha. But his work has been awesome.

While all are talented, I would have to agree that Bradshaw appears to be the breakout star based on the frenzy by his fans snapping up all his artwork at very healthy prices. Nick's style has often been compared favorably to Arthur Adams in both style and detail.

 

I don't own any art from any of these artists yet but would love to make an addition.

 

Cheers!

Discovered Stegman's work through his work on Hickman's FF run.

 

Big fan of his stuff.

[Pete Marino]

I love Bradshaw's work. But I feel like he really needs to find his own voice. The pages that he does with more his own style are great.

 

He does too much of an Art Adams style too often for some people to take him seriously IMO. I spoke to one guy about 6 months ago who almost leapt out of his skin and prickled at his name... because he felt like Brandshaw was a personal affront to AA.

marquez and Schiti are the only ones i would consider 'young guns'. the others have been cranking out quality work for a number of years. you cant go wrong with an asrar, pichelli, or stegman piece of art.

[kzzza]

Valero Schiti is so underrated. Loved his art on Journey Into Mystery.

[aric-migration]

These folks are all incredibly taleneted. Asrar is also very affordablee and knocking out cool piece ater cool piece. If you can afford one get it now...prices are sure to go up...way up

50% is considered a great number for conversions in most businesses.

Remember when Marvel appointed John Romita Jr as a "Young Gun" in 2004, yet his "rookie" debut was in the late 1970's, nearly 3 decades prior...

 

From the list I'm familiar with

 

Mahmud Asrar

Nick Bradshaw

Ryan Stegman

Sara Pichelli

 

The stand outs of the bunch to me is Nick Bradshaw and Sara Pichelli.

These guys may not end up being superstarts in the Jim Lee sense (I mean seriously, who is?), but they are all young and in the biz, and their jorney is inpspirational. So many young and talented foklks try to break in and cant ever seem to get an "in" with the major companies, so when folks like this make it, it is very cool and the story of how they did so is compelling
