What to Draw, What to Draw? 1 1

[BrightSide77]

I draw from comic images in my free time, whatever strikes me as a challenge or whose style or imagery seems unique or unforgettable.

It has me thinking. . .is there a single comic panel that stands above all the rest for you? There are iconic artists and covers, but what about THE iconic storyline moment for you in all of comics? 

Share images if you have one.

One that comes to mind for me is from the BPRD Hell on Earth series and Johann Kraus.

My all-time favorite Wolverine panel:

The last thing he says on the page previous:

They we’re good…

You really want a challenge? Here you go. 

Arthur Ranson from "Batman and the Phantom Stranger" graphic novel.

This is what I call a "fake" panel page. The central and secondary graveyard sculptures, as well as the background, are all positioned in a way to continue into all three panel pages, like a splash page but with panel separations. Yet there are also three different figures of the Phantom Stranger at different locations. So, it may be that the same character is in 3 different places at the same time--or is he simply moving around the same place at 3 different times? Throw in the quality of the line work, and the lovely way it drips off the page. That should keep you busy.

Wow! What a nice piece!  I like how the paneling and use of distance almost make him jump through time!  Very detailed too. So cool! 

Working on this Wolvy at the moment. Just a rough in at the moment. I'll prob try to ink it, see what happens ?  Curious his lower jaw seems missing, which I can't unsee now.  😁

I've always enjoyed pages like this. It's a nice way to show motion.
