Who's your favorite comicbook artist?

[Figuremod73]

Since everyone is mentioning more than ONE artist I thought I would add in another one of my favorites: Ernie Chan and his Conan.

[The Toyroom]

Marie Severin was brought up and I completely agree...one of the most underrated Silver Age artists out there. She was a great cover artists and complemented Kirby and Trimpe in the early Hulk run from Marvel. Another one of those artsits that did EVERYTHING. She was an inker/artist/colorist and could do every genre in comics. Here art on Not Brand Echh is FANTASTIC. I think she also was the only female artist in comics during the 50's/60's. Definitely was a pioneer for future female artists.

Don't forget Ramona Fradon during that same time period

For some reason I always thought Fradon was post Severin. I always thought of her as a 70's artist along with Trina Robbins. Learn something new every day.

[The Toyroom]

She worked on Aquaman in the 50s and created Aqualad and Metamorpho in the 60s...

Fradon's uninked pencils are gorgeous. Same with Nick Cardy. If you're ever at a con where they appear, go by and look at their sketches. Just really cool stuff.

Neal Adams and Steranko for me. Meet them both at Dragon Con here in Georgia. I guess
these two artist would be my first choice. With a host of a 100 or more there after.

Like Barry Winsor Smith too!

Swan was a hell of an Illustrator, and was a work horse for DC......

[Remco Monster]

Neal Adams!

Jim Aparo & Gene Colon.

Never tire of them--they didn't just have draftsmanship, but also style.

[Brown Bear]

Jim Aparo was my favorite Batman artist.

Some very nice Curt Swan illustrations there.

She worked on Aquaman in the 50s and created Aqualad and Metamorpho in the 60s...

Agree about Fradon and Cardy. Ramona was at the Pittsburgh Comicon a few years ago, and I wasn't familiar with her work. Nate told me that he saw the most beautiful Wonder Woman sketch at a table. That was Ramona's booth. I have two sketches by her now, and I hope to see her again and get more. If you see her at a show, trust me, you need to buy something from her. Not only is it beautiful, it's very affordable.
