Otto Schmidt draws a sexy Black Canary, only wish she was a bit thicker.
I know this sounds weird, but it irks me when artist's draw head's like that, with the extremely prominent jawline that point towards a flat superhero chin. It's like I can see their sketch first and it completely takes me out of the art.
Into my veins. I wish Parlov was drawing the main Punisher series on right now.
unfortunately all the black detolfs were sold out

Contest of Champions is pretty decent popcorn 80's comics.
Loved how ewing used all the silliness as an excuse to bring night trasher and stick back.

Been binging on Tom King books recently. Read Vision vol. 1, Sheriff of Babylon vol. 1, and I'm 2 issues into the collected Omega Men, and they're all so damn good. Honestly don't know which is the best so far. I also got all the volumes of Grayson still in my backlog, but I imagine those aren't quite as good.
Is his Batman really not very good like I've heard? Like based on what I've read he would be THE dude I'd want writing that book.

Well all sort of thought that.
There are people that think that his Batman is up to snuff with the rest of his books, but not everyone unfortunately.

I bought the sand-colored ones too. Dust shows up easier on the black.
LOL Those were sold out too! I got the white ones.

Oh. You won't see dust on those until you have at least three inches of it.
Personally, I thought DC should've put him on Green Lantern.

Really does. The whole first part of Island of Scars is just sex.....y. Sexy.

dude his batman run sadly kind of sucks. big disappointment since it's Tom King taking on the batgod. it's boring, dialogue is corny as hell more often than not too. there have been like 1 or 2 really good issues but that's about it.
but yeah his other work is la flame.
Agreed.

eh conceptually that first arc was great but the execution was not very good I thought.
he's bringing good ideas to his run but that's about it.

I gave it a try when it first dropped and didn't like it. I'm picky with how I like Batman to be portrayed though.
So you're saying he's like Bendis on a team book.

i'm not that familiar with comics to get that kind of comparison but...sure lol.
still buying it every 2 weeks though haha. it's batman and I have hope that at some point King will turn it around. I am Suicide was an improvement.

I take full credit for the title and accompanying thread.
The music notes are a nice touch.

Wheres that from?
Grayson is pretty fucking good, but it does lean fairly heavily on Morrison's Batman run thematically I think. I wonder if it might fall a bit flat if you'd not read the latter.

It's also good because of Tim Seeley not Tom King.
Practicing sketching. I honestly think I'm improving. I mean, yes, I was looking at the computer monitor and drawing what I saw (while doing a little bit of improvising), but how else am I going to learn.
Was the image you were using as inspiration a Kevin Maguire panel? The facial expressions are expressive and good, which reminds me of Maguire quite a bit.
In any event, well done.

I don't believe it was recolored. I remember looking at a few single issues in stores before I tracked down the omnibuses, looked the same!

I second this. I really enjoyed I Am Suicide more than gaf did.

Seven to Eternity 2-4
I was really iffy on the first issue as I felt like we didn't really get much from it for a first issue. 2-4 really followed those up with jam packed issues. I really liked almost everything about this book. The world building(that library part!!!) and the character building is really all great.
Sucks we're waiting 'til March for more as now that I read them all in one chunk I really want more.
