    Default Who is your favourite comic book artist?

    I was just going through some of my old comic books which i used to collect during the huge comic bang of the 90's and was wondering how many of us here got caught up in that bang and which artists were/are your favourites?

    Mine

    Todd McFarlane - still to this day i haven't seen anyone better.

    Erik Larsen - Bit cartoony but oh so cool!

    Dale Keown - Best hulk ever!!

    Honerable mention to Jim Lee.

    I was reading stuff from the Top Cow universe so guys like Marc Silvestri, Michael Turner (RIP), David Finch, and Joe Benitez were my favourites.
    Currently I like the non-inked stuff from the likes of Stjepan Sejic and Jay Anacleto.

    John Romita Jr is my all-time favourite. I love the gritty look to his stuff. I'd kill for some original art from him.

    Mark Buckingham for his work on Fables.
    Yukito Kishiro for creating Battle Angel Alita (GUNNM), my favourite manga of all time.

    I think I was reading Disney Adventures in the 90s.

    I mainly like Cory Walker and Ryan Ottley for their work on Invincible. The art's really tidy and clean.
    Also, Juanjo Guarnido, his comic art is so full of life and energy. If you haven't read Blacksad, I recommend it. It's relatively short, and really good.

    I'd like to include Adam Hughes and Frank Frazetta, just because their anatomy work is so flawless and beautiful, although I haven't read anything where they've done work on interiors.

    Adrian Alphona will always be high up there. He doesn't get (or do) nearly enough comics work.
