Description

For the last so many years I’ve started off January with my first pickup by various artists and I’m continuing that here in 2021 with my very first Olivier Coipel piece! Definitely was a big hole in my modern art collection I’m glad to have closed!

This one really hit on all fronts as far as a Coipel example for me. Checklist:

- Great shot of a flying Thor being propelled by Mjolnir. Modern Thor’s become synonymous with Coipel and vice versa, with good reason, so it’s nice to have him as part of this page. Thor’s new look in the Straczynski/Coipel/Morales 2007 launch was a rare game changer when it comes to the look of a character
- I love Coipel’s Silver Surfer, and the image here definitely was the main factor if I had to pick one with this acquisition. An awesome soaring image with the Surfer looking right at the reader. Coipel’s exhibiting that John Buscema influence while it still being his own. I really like how he (AND inker Mark Morales!) render the reflection/sheen effect, particularly on the face here!
- Glad I was able get a female character in there with Lady Sif! Determined expression in that profile shot and I love how her hair’s done
- I’m as big a fan of Coipel’s pin up-y stuff as anyone but I’m really impressed with his interiors – he’s one of the best at mixing great storytelling with splashier images. Here, got that cool unique layered panel layout beneath the money shot up top. Got a little Allfather at the end to top it off.

OK I think that’s it :)

I missed the boat on this series initially, both in terms of reading the book as well as the OA, but am glad to now have been able to pick up such a nice example. Thanks, Mark, for parting – I know it wasn’t easy. But trust that it’s got a good home! And I hope everyone’s 2021 is starting off right!
