FEATURED ARTIST – DENYS COWAN

Denys Cowan was born January 30, 1961 and is a comic book artist, television producer, media executive and one of the co-founders of Milestone Media. Denys Cowan was first inspired by superheroes as a child from reruns of the 1950s TV show Adventures of Superman with George Reeves. He did not yet even know what a comic book was and would not learn about them until the third grade. After Cowan’s mother died, he moved in with his grandparents, and attended school in that district, where he met a future fellow comics creator, Derek Dingle, who drew comics with his brother. Dingle showed Cowan his first comic book, an issue of Jack Kirby’s New Gods. Cowan attended the High School of […]

Featured Artist(Writer) – Bill Finger

This one…is gonna cause a stir. Maybe. You all know who Bob Kane is right? Credited with creating Batman. Ring a bell? Yeah , well screw that guy. I’d be more terse but there might be kids reading and I wanna set the story straight. Bob Kane drew a guy with a cape. Bill Finger added everything else to make him Batman. To include his rogues gallery and supporting characters and story. Bob Kane stole it all. That’s right, he STOLE it. Out-right. I’m going to point you to a documentary available on Hulu to watch, it’s called Batman & Bill and you can watch it here. Go ahead and watch it.  I’ll

Featured Artist – Bill Sienkiewicz

注目のアーティスト - ビル・シエンキウィッツ

By the way, that’s pronounced ‘sinKEVitch’. Just so you know. Bill is an American artist known for his work in comic books—particularly for Marvel Comics’ New Mutants, Moon Knight, and Elektra: Assassin. He is the co-creator of the character David Haller / Legion,the basis for the FX television series Legion. Sienkiewicz’s work in the 1980s was considered revolutionary in mainstream US comics due to his highly stylized art that verged on abstraction and made use of oil painting, photorealism, collage, mimeograph, and other forms generally uncommon in comic books. ‘Revolutionary’ doesn’t really describe how we felt about Bill when he burst onto the scene. ‘Mind-blowing’ was more like it. ‘Astounding!’  What the heck were we looking at? It was amazing and had never-before been seen in

FEATURED ARTIST – Ross Andru

ROSS ANDRU Part 1  My favorite comicbook artist of all time is John Romita Sr. Has been since the day I first saw his work. I must have been 4 or 5 at the time. I lived with my grandparents, you see, and their youngest son, my uncle, had stacks of AMAZING SPIDER-MAN and MARVEL TALES comics around the house.             So telling you how much I admire John Romita’s work … is kind of a strange way to start discussing my love for the work of Ross Andru, eh? But here we are. First off, don’t worry. Future me is already working on an essay detailing my love of Jazzy
