We all have our favorites, that we collect or are in he look out for their art - but with this post I hope to hear about artists that you are excited about collecting at the moment. For example, while I don't yet own anything by D. Dillin, I recently started looking at justice League art and become a bit of a new fan

 

Hoping others can share what they're excited about these days - whether it be new artists that many may not know or old time artists that you just started paying attention to.

 

As a funny aside the message boards won't let me spell out D**k . It puts the word "spoon" in when publishing the article. Now I finally get where this spoon comes from.

I have been a long-time Chris Stevens fan and have my first published piece coming. Really excited to add one of his amazing cover to my collection.

 

I have seen his work on CAF- but wasn't sure - does he actually work for marvel/DC- or is he a commission guy only?

I'm not sure about DC, but he has done several published covers for Marvel.

John Buscema Conan, Don Perlin Defenders, Don Heck anything hero related. I just bought some Al Hartley Patsy Walker Marvel art from 1961 and did a bunch of background research on him. He was almost a right hand for Stan Lee for a few years. A key Marvel man, but only did one superhero book. I also have a soft spot for Stan's brother Larry Lieber. Modern artists are Ryan Stegman and Evan Shaner.

I dream of owning a page from John Romita and Jack Kirby some day.

I don't follow DC and I am not aware of any Stevens DC covers. He has done several Marvel covers. He seems to get tapped on the shoulder for a handful or so a year.

Mike Mignola (why oh why did I sell so many over the years?), Carmine Infantino, and Bill Everett.

 

 

 

I'm with you on the Mignola selling regret. Sold 3 or 4 pieces and now I have none and I pretty much want the kind of pages I sold. Unfortunately, they are about 3X the price of what I sold the for. Sigh.

Newer - Adam Gorham

 

Recent Gorham cover I picked up that is stunning in person

 

Older - Al McWilliams. I picked up a couple of his sci-fi pieces a few months ago and his brushwork is really nice. I've yet to buy a Twin Earths, but looking for a good example in the near future :wishluck: . he seems to be an under rated artist

In no particular order: Joëlle Jones (looking forward to her visit over here at the end of November), Gisèle Lagacé, Jim Holdaway, Ulf Jansson, Frank Robbins, Steve Dillon (re-reading Preacher), Eduardo Barreto and Dan DeCarlo.

 

We have enough shared interests that I'm going to have to take a look at the artists on your list that I don't know.

 

Older: Dan DeCarlo. I've been looking for the "right" cover for almost three years. I found it in the UK a couple of weeks ago. At last!

 

Newer: Joëlle Jones. Her Lady Killer slays me.

Eduardo Barreto has been overlooked by so many people. I think his art is fantastic.

I couldn't agree more. But it is the fact that it is overlooked which makes it possible for me to acquire it while still on a tight budget :grin: . I think there is more or less a straight line from Caniff by Robbins and Jijé that ends at Barreto's work.

Do that. I don't think you will be disappointed.

Picture? Or can you tell us which issue?

Well put! :/
