Wow! Cool and mysterious image of the Dark Knight standing in the rain on a building ledge surrounded by gargoyles. I love the color palette Ardian Syaf used in painting this. By painting Batman and the gargoyles a light pink and the cityscape behind them a cool teal blue, Ardian creates a great deal of separation between the foreground and the background. Fabulous pick-up, congrats!

Gorgeous Spider-Woman sketch. When I first noticed it in thumbnail, I too thought it was a fine art sketch. Only when I clicked on it to make it larger did I realize it was Spider-Woman. And why not? Why should sketches of our favortie superheroes be drawn as skillfully and evocatively as fine art sketches?

While I appreciate everyone's glowing comments about the raccoon and the moose, I wanted to throw in a compliment to Frazetta's drawing of the woman. She's way more attractive than either the moose or the raccoon.

Crazy cool Batman commission by Matt Allison. Clearly Matt has a different way of looking at things. This portrait of the Dark Knight with a floating skull for a head muttering the word "OK," makes me smile, but I don't know why. It's bizarre, but i kinda like it.

Yowza! I love John Buscema drawing the Avengers! Big John was just so talented. I mean, how do you beat that top splash panel--A 40-foot tall Kree-designed Sentry laying unconscious in the grass? John is one of the few artists who could draw that and make you believe it.  And then he could add alien soldiers dropping down from the sky and townsfolk running away. John B. was truly one of the best ever. Great pick-up, congrats!
