  1. wow! these are all beautiful! guess it was a good week for sketches! 

  2. The 1st one made me laugh so much.

  3. Man Hardmann and Samnee are so good.

  4. The Francavilla is awesome. haha. Man if i had the bat torch, de-icing my cars in the morning would go so much faster!!!

  5. Every single pick is a fantastic choice, especially Shaner’s and Trippe’s, but the concept behind Samnee’s is brilliant. It’s such a simple idea, I’m shocked we haven’t seen it multiple times. The man is a genius.

    Wow, Haun’s Zatanna is so pretty. Love the watercolors. 

  7. Wait, did Batman bring the flamethrower just to clean off the batmobile when he got back to it?  Seems like he could find a more economical/less cumbersome way of getting the snow off his ride.

    @josh  Oh, COOL! God, I want that as a print. Guess I’m adding a new artist to my “MUST GET ORIGINAL ART FROM” list!

  10. I said it before, and will say it again, put Samnee on Superman! His style is perfect for that book!

  11. Shaner’s Lex is awesome, the pose, his anger, really neat.  But Haun’s Zatanna is gorgeous.  He’s quickly become one of my favorite artists, ever since coming across his work in the Manhunter back-up in Streets of Gotham.  His work on Red Hood: The Lost Days, particularly his rendition of the Joker, was pretty damn awesome.

  12. Some really great stuff here. Any Batman heavy Sketch Up is always a big hit with me. Also nice to have a new Zatanna home screen on my phone.

    Wish I had that flamethrower this morning. Where does he get those wonderful toys?

  13. Great stuff.

    We should have like, a tribute to classic covers sketch up week…..or something article. 

  14. Thanks for including mine, guys! You’ve got me in some excellent company here. Great work, everyone! 🙂

  15. Thanks for including me with such incredible stuff guys!

  16. You know what would be cool? If we thumb up or down or rate these each week! These ad the covers. That would be great! A sort of “like/dislike” system for the reviews could be cool too!

  17. PLEASE GET HARDMAN ON A BATMAN TITLE NOW!!!!! SOOOOO AMAZING!!!! (JAW IS BROKEN FROM DROPPING)!!!!

  18. wow chris samnee is good, that is such a different style than his usual fare it’s scary he can do it so well.

    also, i love zatanna

  19. There is something about Batman that when he`s done right is so awesome. Better then anyone else.

  20. That Zatanna is lovely.  

  21. All lovely, but I really liked the Samnee.  There even seemed to be a little bit of Chiang’s style in there, which I only mean in a good way….

  22. Hardman + Batman = WOW!

  23. JASON AARON + GABRIEL HARDMAN ON BATMAN NOW!

  24. @NawidA Jason Aaron would be so EPIC!!!!
