Chicago based artist Skottie Young's unusual style has earned him critical acclaim. His work on New York Times best selling adaptation of The Wizard of Oz series landed him an Eisner award. Heavily stylised anatomy and a quirky sense of humour dominate Young's work. It's dynamic and full of life. Check out a showcase after the jump!

Sean Phillips is the consummate artist. a 25 year veteran in the comics industry, phillips has provided work for 2000ad, WildC.A.T.S., Marvel Zombies, most of Ed Brubaker's creator owned work and a whole host of others. Brubaker, unlike many of his contemporaries, is dedicated to improving his craft, taking lessons and experimenting with style. His covers reflect this, and while they lean towards a painted aesthetic, there is a real sense of progress.

Review: BPRD Hell On Earth - The Pickens County Horror #1

images-2
Another month, another BPRD mini series. I am really enjoying the frequency in which these minis have been coming out lately. It used to seem like there was a month in between mini series, and now I don't think there is any break between minis and it keeps the momentum going. Check out a showcase of his work after the jump!

This month we get the start of a fog filled, fungus infecting, vampire story.

Review: Angel and Faith #8

A&F8
I feel that this arc had gone on a little bit long. It started out great but I just felt a little stretched out reading this issue. It's probably just me, but I felt that the things that Faith's dad had to say was already established in a previous issue. Still though, like the developments that occurred near the end. Will there be more to this? I think so. Will the subplot involving Drusilla end? I hope so. I really like this series to move on..move forward to greater story beats like Angel's attempt to resurrect Giles, and the runaway slayer with survivor's guilt issues.
