Noah Van Sciver's 19th century cartoonist. Love the reference to Dürer's 16th century rhinoceros...

Just arrived - my favorite Robin by one of my favorite artists!! 

Planning to frame it with the Batman I just purchased (which I should have in a week or so) so that I have the quintessential version of both characters (or at least my favorite iterations of them) in my lifetime sharing a frame together!

Just received some Semeiks/Dell Lobo pages today from Val Semeiks.

The first 3 are from Lobo #8. I already have a page from that issue, so now I'm making it a mission to find more.

The next 5 are from Lobo: A Portrait of a Victim #1.

The last is from Lobo/Dredd: Psycho Bikers vs the Mutants from Hell.

Here's a Brian Bolland preliminary cover for Wonder Woman #91 (1994). He went with a different pose on the published cover that showed more of their faces and less of their feet, which are sort of a no-win artistically. Draw feet poorly, and people complain about anatomical errors. Draw them well, and people say, "Wow, feet are really weird!" The final cover also showed them actually striking at each other with the maces, whereas this image is more a wind-up.

Spider-Man by Clayton Crain. What could be better than a watercolor (actually acrylic) in the rain?

Whoa heavy hitter. 

Sweet!

A page from Harley Quinn #14 (original series) where Terry Dodson shows off his understanding how real people move and act. And on top (literally) of this is Rachel Dodson's ink brush magic.
Harley in civil duds runs into Jimmy Olsen in an elevator.

Click on the picture for a slightly larger scan in my Terry Dodson gallery on CAF.

Didn't know which thread to post this in; but thought it would be appreciate here: 

Wayne Vansant, Mark Bagley & Joseph Linsner were at Free Comic Book Day in Marietta, GA (Dr. No's Comics). -- Mark Bagley and Joseph Linsner were sketching for free, so the line moved slow. (Wayne Vansant was drawing for kids & taking commissions). -- Nancy A. Collins & Kristina Deak-Linsner were also there, but are primarily writers, and this is an Original Art thread. 

Bagley was funny. After a few initial requests he shouted, “last Venom of the day” … he’s eliminating characters as he goes …

After a few Green Goblins he shouted, "last Green Goblin for the day." 

Here's a few pics of other people's acquisitions: 

I mainly collect "sketch cards," and will scan + add my pickups later.

Great people, great event.

Here's a Matt Sclalera page from Secret Avengers. Ant Man, Hawkeye, Valkyrie, and Venom vs a rogue Nick Fury LMD. A cornucopia of manga-style action lines!

Just added this Wolverine Cover 2 by Esad Ribic to my CAF.
Was looking for an older cover by him, there are so many details in his earlier work and for me this was a perfect example.
Also, I totally feel for poor Logan, he just wanted to read a book, drink a cold beverage and relax.
And as it is a Monday morning, I thought it fits .

Ok, very VERY happy to have opened my mail today!

All three came from the same owner, who got them from Bruce in 2003 at SDCC. They were in his sketchbook. He also sold me a fourth sketch, a Batman beyond that was not on it's own page, so it's trimmed... and since it doesn't fit with my framing plans, I'm going to post it in the marketplace for those interested.

But these three are headed to the framer tomorrow (along with the George Perez Robin I posted last week!).  The plan is to pair Batman and Robin (as my favorite two examples of the characters), and Joker and Harley together!

okay; I scanned my new FCBD sketch cards and added them to my Google Gallery (first two pics):

I like this one much more than what they went with.

@babsrocks31 pointed out Alvaro Martinez in another thread, so I picked up one of his DPSes from Detective Comics. Thanks for the tip! The iconography-based layout reminded me of JH Williams III.
