I’ll take that LOTR piece by Tom Fowler. It’s beautiful.
I second that! 0_o
Agreed, that’s my background now.
Dude…
I’m amused how X-23 has become such a phenomenon even though she’s only existed for a few years. She’s all over the place.
Potential next Deadpool?
I don’t usually comment on the pieces, but the naturalism in the Noto piece is so wonderful.
Also look at Lois’ shoe. Clark is f’ing smitten. I love it.
Phil Noto. Wow.
Phil Noto you magnificent bastard.
The Canete Vader is absolutely brilliant, I mean they are all brilliant but I think the Vader pic just forced force pushed the coffee mug off my desk. Incredible.
I need that Fowler LOTR piece in my life right now.
Also the negative space light saber blade in Canete’s Vader is brilliant.
McKelvie’s always teasing us with the X-Men sketches. Why won’t Marvel put him on Uncanny?!?!?!?!??!
At the vey least, they should use that costume design for X-23. I love the Wolverine-esque grey stripes on the shoulders.
He’s doing an X-Men graphic novel.
I swear I’ll never understand all the love for Mckelvie, his characters all look like punk rock kids dressed up as the superhero characters we all know instead of the characters themselves… also it looks really stiff.
@Josh, Yes he is, but to have him team up with Gillen on Uncanny is a great opportunity for a more consistent, fresh run on Uncanny X-Men. Not just McKelvie, I would settle for LaFuente, Pichelli, whatever new artist that can match Kieron’s style of writing. Basically Ron’s equivalent of what artists should work on Uncanny is just that, Uncanny needs to be fresh again with a new kind of artist WITH Kieron Gillen a much more Whedonesque kind of writer than Fraction/Brubaker ever could be.
like mckelvie’s art, the cleanness, the crisp colors, but i don’t think she actually looks like x-23 very much at all. more like kitty pride with claws. then again, there have been so many variations with her apperance i guess there is considerable wiggle room.
Love the Moustafa piece. A perfect hybrid of cartoonish and real. Dig it.
He’s gonna be a name you recognize some day.
I couldn’t agree more, Josh. The dude is one smokingly talented doodler.
Phil Noto is a terrific artist. Maybe more importantly, he comes up with the coolest ideas.
His whole historic angle is very clever.
Hawethorne’s Batman screams Animated Series. And I love it for that.
Also, Phil Noto is a creative mastermind.
Woah… wait a second… Did I just look at an X-23 drawing that I actually liked?
I feel obligated to say once a month how much I love this feature. It’s amazing how much fantastic art is out there that these guys just do as sketches. That Noto piece is brilliant. And leave it to McKelvie to take a stone cold killer, and make her cute as a button.
Noto is so good his excellent Batman / Doc Savage one shot made me read the rest of First Wave.
i love weekly sketch up. awesome art.
Agreed. One of the best weekly features.
When Phil Noto leaves X-23, I’d like to see Jamie McKelvie do art on the book now
I loved that Predator piece. I recently finished up reading Petrograd, nice to see more work from him and from an unexpected source too. The figure doesn’t look too much like Arnold, but I instantly recognized it.
