Windsor McKay Charles Shultz Walt Kelly Hal Foster Alex Raymond Al Capp Jeff Smith Scott McCloud Osamu Tezuka I may edit this to add/remove named & to provide explanations of my choices. Title: Re: TOP 10 COMIC BOOK ARTIST Post by: WingedSerpent on February 27, 2019, 09:24:56 PM One of my favorites is Ethan Van Sciver. His run on Green Lantern with Geoff Jones are some of my favorite superhero comics of recent years.

No offense- all great artists- (except I'm not familiar with the bottom 3), but, technically, they're newspaper comic strip artists. When it comes to newspaper strip artists, I lean towards Chester Gould's Dick Tracy.

He's best known for his long association with DC's New Teen Titans in the '80s but he worked for Marvel on Avengers and Fantastic Four (to name just a few) for many years as well.
I loved his style, he could draw pretty much any super hero character (and his ladies always had a certain, shall we say, "va-va-voom" element to them)... he was THE MAN as far as I was concerned. (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/f/f2/Crisis1.jpg/175px-Crisis1.jpg) I just read recently that he has announced his retirement from comics, I'd say it's well deserved.

I think he drew the X-Men back in the '70s. I remember his work, because of the clenching teeth! Yeah, he's great! |
