This is tough.

All time: I'd have to go with John Buscema, Al Williamson, Reed Crandall, Hal Foster, and Alex Raymond. Ask me again tomorrow, though, and three of those might be off the list.

Current: Fave guys are probably Steve Epting, Bryan Hitch, Gene Ha, Gary Frank, and Lee Bermejo.

There really is to many great ones out there to name just five...
If we were to name those really active at just Marvel and DC right now i probably couldnt even come up with five.
