Some artists take a while to mature into star material, while others are stars the first time you lay your eyes on them. They may not know it; heck, the fans may not know it. But it’s there.
Based in Rio de Janeiro, artist Marcio Takara has spent the majority of his young career drawing super-heroes for Boom! Studios. From early work on The Incredibles to his current assignment drawing Incorruptible. Between all that he’s done a one-off issue of Jay Faerber’s Dynamo 5 and stories in two of Marvel’s kids line of books, but it’s Incorruptible and The Incredibles that show off his work best. And his work is dramatic for its range: I’d wager my lunch money that someone reading Incorruptible wouldn’t recognize his work in The Incredibles as the same artist. While an artist having a range is something taken for granted with big talents like Stuart Immonen, seeing this is a younger talent is surprising and a portent of what could come. Plus, Takara gets points for handling a monthly book like Incorruptible without any major delays.
Here’s a sample of Marcio’s work and tell us in the comments where you’d like to see him next.

I love his Deviant Art page where he does all the micro-heroes! Esp micro Adam West Batman!
Met him at the show in Montreal in 2010, really nice guy. He did an Incredibles sketch for my daughter. Very quiet and laid back dude but with a smile on his face. Best of luck to him!
Love his style. Both of them. I want to see more of his X-men, cos, just, WOW!
Haven’t seen his stuff before, I’ll have to keep a look out for his name now.
Incredibles, the best FF movie!!!
Yea Marcio’s art style is awesome. I first discovered him reading my son an Incredibles comic, I koved his art and now I find myself reading the incredibles b4 i read it to my son.
I met Marcio on DeviantArt, his little mini figures are so effin cool. Glad to see he’s getting the exposure he so richly deserves.
