Art Appreciation
Miller Mondays
two spreads from RONIN. miller could go from claustrophobic, swarming atmospheres to…
…warm, open scenes like this. lynn varley’s colors are brilliant. horses are some of my favorite things to see in comics, and miller’s are among the best.
Moebius Mondays
moebius could go from the bustling cityscapes like the one above…
…to the quiet, dreamlike beauty of a scene like this. the man was one-of-a-kind.
Sienkiewicz Sunday
from the ‘demon bear’ storyline in the early 80’s NEW MUTANTS comic. the story goes that Sienkiewicz was offered X-Men but wanted to do the lesser profile NEW MUTANTS so that he could explore new styles. comics thanks you, bill.
Steranko Saturday
Jim Steranko’s 1969 tribute to Salvador Dali. From Nick Fury: Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D.
Frank Friday
Wednesday Winsor
McCay’s incredible design sense set loose on one of Arthur Brisbane’s editorial cartoons.
Wally Wednesday
Toth Tuesdays
by all accounts, alex toth was a complicated man. that he found such striking clarity in his work speaks, in a hope-filled voice, to the inner turmoil we all roll through. we mined his depths when we needed this year’s locust moon comics festival poster. here’s the inspiration. check out that cape.
