Daredevil and Batman "Knight Vigil" by Chris Samnee Prelim

Loose pencils prior to inking.

I've appreciated Chris' work for a while now, but when I saw his work in the Daredevil: Blood of the Tarantula annual, I knew that I had to have him do a commission for me. His renditions of Batman and Daredevil are superb, so it was a no-brainer to have him tackle a noir-ish team-up piece featuring these two street level vigilantes. I love the iconic symbolism in the gargoyles that he's cleverly incorporated. I also love the fact that the piece seems to imply a backstory for the teaming of these two heroes. Brilliant, Chris. Hopefully, this will be the first in a series of pieces by Mr. Samnee.
