There’s a great sense of mood and power in this piece. I wish I could ink with one half of the confidence and instinct that Matteo’s art exudes.

There are a few artists who I like more than Eric Canete, but I don’t think that ANYONE can top his sketches. He draws them SUPER fast, SUPER frequently, and NEVER disappoints.

The more I peruse Ulises Farinas’ website, the more I love his work. Can you guess why?

One surefire way to win me over to your side is to draw some oldschool Wildstorm fan art.

When it comes to drawing fun pieces with lots of motion and emotive characters, deviantArt member Joel27 makes it look easy.

I’ve never been a fan of pointy-fingered Batman, but this is a darned nice drawing of Bats and Hellboy.

Wednesday Haul 5/2/12
New comics I bought this week:
Amazing Spiderman #685
Animal Man #9 - I’ll be completely honest…I didn’t read this entire issue. I made it about 6 or 7 pages in and Buddy was running around in The Red surrounded by bone structures and seas of blood, and then he met a faun who called himself The Shepherd with a little parrot made out of bones on his shoulder and I gave up. I thought this series was going to go somewhere interesting, but the plot has just been spinning it’s wheels since issue 2. I’m sick of characters floating around in some other dimension talking to weird animal gods who look like something you’d find in the house from The Texas Chainsaw Massacre and blather on endlessly about forces of good and evil and everyone’s destiny and purpose and all of that stuff. I just don’t have the patience for it anymore. Animal Man, consider yourself dropped from my pull list.
Avengers Vs X-Men #3 - Weak writing. That’s all this is. I’m not invested in what’s going on at all. Marvel should be focusing more on the urgency of the situation at hand than they are on jokes and “dream bouts” we’ve all seen before. I may be reading the book, but I’m completely emotionally checked out.
The Boys #66
Daredevil #12 - Now THAT was a great comic! Engrossing story, gorgeous art…everything that AVX has yet to achieve. (Burn!) I’ve loved Paolo Rivera and Marcos Martin’s work on this series thus far, but Chris Samnee is a welcome addition to the team.
Fury MAX #1 - There’s not a whole lot to say about this series yet. Goran Parlov’s art is a delight and Ennis’ dialogue is as great as ever. This issue was pretty much all set-up, though. I’m expecting big things from this series, as anyone who has read Ennis’ amazing Punisher MAX run should be.
The New Deadwardians #2 - I’m just sitting back and enjoying the mystery behind this series. I was sure that I was going to hate this book based on the premise, but it’s actually kind of interesting. Hopefully it pays off in the end.
Swamp Thing #9 - This issue brings with it the end of a story arc I can’t say I’ve really cared about at all. Much like Animal Man (which I ranted about above), this series has had it’s moments, but is otherwise filled with a lot of good/bad/light/dark/god/demon mumbo-jumbo that I don’t find interesting at all. There was a huge, climactic battle in this issue which didn’t effect me in the least. What all of this tells me is that I shouldn’t be reading this title, so from now on I won’t be. Another DC New 52 book bites the dust. It’s a shame, but I’m not really surprised.
Wolverine And The X-Men: Alpha And Omega #5
X-O Manowar #1 - I’ve never read an X-O Manowar comic before, but I decided to pick this relaunch up because of Cary Nord’s art and the fact that the Esad Ribic cover is pretty. The story was…less than spectacular. The art was…not as good as Nord’s un-inked Conan stuff. I may pick up issue #2 when it comes out, but it’ll all depend on what mood I’m in, I think.
