Boom! Studios has several books coming out this week including Cars: The Rookie #3, Eureka: Dormant Gene #3, Farscape: D’argo’s Lament #3, Incredibles #3, and The Muppet Show Comic Book #4. Boom! was kind enough to send us a sneak peek for you to get all worked up about.
Today’s installment features work by Marcio Takara. Instead of the normal single shot image, like we normally do, I found Marcio’s work on Boom! Studios The Incredibles #3, where Marcio delivers up the cover from pencils to final cover. Looking at the process is sometimes just as important and inspiring as looking at the finished image.
Press Release
BOOM! Studios announced today that THE INCREDIBLES: FAMILY MATTERS #2, one of the premiere titles for their new BOOM! Kids imprint, has sold out in only one week! This follows on the heels of simultaneous pre-release sell outs for THE INCREDIBLES: FAMILY MATTERS #1 and THE MUPPET SHOW COMIC BOOK #1, as well as sell outs of CARS: THE ROOKIE #1 and THE MUPPET SHOW COMIC BOOK #2.
Fans should keep in mind, while Diamond Comics Distributors is completely sold out, THE INCREDIBLES: FAMILY MATTERS #2 first printing may still be found at a direct market retailer near you.
Diamond Comics Distributors is making the second printing of THE INCREDIBLES: FAMILY MATTERS #2 available for retailers to order immediately and the second print will be featured in a forthcoming issue Diamond Dateline.
Now that the craziness of the weekend is finally over, we can get back on schedule and bring you, our favorite readers in the world, another installment of the Major Spoilers Art Appreciation Moment of the Day. Today, we dive back into the works of Marcio Takara, who has done a lot of single hero drawings, to bring you a look at his group work.
Take the jump for the full image, plus a look at the pencils for the piece.
What I really like about Marcio’s designs is they are simple. Clean lines, not a lot of detail, but just enough for each of his characters to be distinct from one another. You’ll have to check out his Deviant Art page to see his renditions of other superheroes – because he’s got a lot of them. And yes, this is the same artist who did the Pheonix image a while ago.
I’ve been meaning to post some of Marcio Takara’s works here, but got behind (as usual). If you want some awesome images of Marvel and DC characters, Marcio has you covered. Check out his take on Phoenix.
it was meant to be something else… but I decided to use it to draw a Marvel character again. I was between Ms Marvel, Scarlett Witch and Phoenix
