The Drawing Board – Reis, Samnee, Murphy, Coipel, Scallera, Ramos (Dec. 27)

Happy Holidays to everyone!  

I hope all of you fine folks had a great Holiday this week and I thought I would give a belated Christmas gift.  I (your friendly neighborhood comic nerd) am going to post a weekly article showcasing some of my favorite artists.  We will call this The Drawing Board. My goal here is to have some fun, but also show the non comic fan that the comic book artists are truly amazingly talented.  There will be some folks in the article that you have heard of and some you have not.  If you like some of the art you see here, go look the artist up and support his or her work.

With all that out of the way, allow me to put on a show for your eyeballs!
