What Are Your Favorite Comic Artists?

I am really surprised that my favorite artist has not made anyone’s list above. My favorite is Todd McFarlane. His art was the first time that I noticed, looked for the name, and strove to buy more.

His art is stunning, but when I think of McFarlane, I usually think of Spawn, so it hadn’t really crossed my mind.

Spawn is great. I fell for him on his Spider-man run.

Dexter Soy. His artwork never disappoints and I love his Jason Todd so much :heart_eyes:

For the classics, I love Perez, Sprang, Giordano, Adams. Truly some magic pencils. He didn’t draw DC but the late Dave Stevens will always be a favorite.

Mike Mignola, Darwyn Cooke, and Amanda Conner are great in the more stylized sense. You look at a piece of art and you know it’s their work.
