New Brian Azzaello promo comic



In conjunction with his forthcoming novel, Vanished, author Joseph Finder produced a comic featuring his creation, The Cowl.


From his site:
The Cowl is written by Brian Azzarello, one of the greats in the comics world and the author of 100 Bullets and the bestselling Joker, and drawn by talented new comic artist Benito Gallego. There are limited quantities of the comic book available in print. This is an exclusive offer for fans who pre-order VANISHED. (Click here) for a letter from Joe explaining the origin of The Cowl.

More Chris Sprouse




In a bit of synchronicity, this interview of Sprouse just appeared online. Disregard the typos. It's pretty good!

And Sprouse was set to do a Superman story, he says, but it was canceled.

Alas!

My favorite quote: "It was very easy to break in: I simply mailed sample pages to DC Comics and they called me two weeks later! "

The great Chris Sprouse



Artist Chris Sprouse has a very appealing style. Simple, clean and really elegant line work, expressive faces, terrific page design, smart sexy ladies, powerful men, scary villains — Sprouse does it all and makes it look easy.

He's currently working on a new series featuring Tom Strong, the character he co-created with Alan Moore.

I ganked the above image from his website which is well worth a visit.

Wouldn't it be great if Chris Sprouse regularly drew Superman? I sure think so.

Wayne Boring + Curt Swan + Kurt Schaffenberger = Chris Sprouse. That's how I figure it, anyway.
