I love going through the Deviant Art website to see what I can see.  And what I saw today was this Mister Miracle piece by Bob Strang.  If you like that, take the jump to see his version of Big Barda.

Since Marvel is going with the Wolverine Appreciation Month (oddly enough the company came up with that idea AFTER we started running these Art Appreciation Moments of the Day), I figured we’d get into the gimmick by running some Wolverine art done by creators. This was supposed to be part of something bigger, He was having his hair cut by Mystic and stuff, and it was going to be great, and you would have loved it, and I would have been famous, and a studio would have hire me and stuff, But as motivation seems to be gone, I ll…

I realize there are some people out there who really get into the anthropomorphized animals – or furries if you will.  Because of the holiday, and because I like a lot of his art, Phillip M. Jackson serves up some furry bunny for the day.

With the fourth installment of the Ultimate Wolverine vs. Ultimate Hulk title hitting shelves this week, I thought it might be interesting for a different take on the battle.  Today’s Art Appreciation Moment comes from Stepan Seijic (the guy currently doing art on Top Cow’s Witchblade).  Stepan’s art came as a suggestion from Major Spoilers reader Jerardo. via Comic Art Community

While I love Dustin doing his thing in Detective Comics, I think it would be really interesting to see how he would handle Marvel’s Runaways series.  A new creator group is on board the series right now, but maybe, just maybe down the road, Dustin may have a chance to bring his version of Nico to life. i was at a hotgirl meeting this morning, and it was agreed- batwings instantly add 200% hotness. then the meeting was adjourned when we were raided by not so hot members with rat tails and pigfeet. via Deviant Art

As we wrap up this Wizard of Oz art appreciation week, it would be silly not to pay homage to the illustrator who kicked off the Oz drawings William Wallace Denslow all the way back in 1899. From the Wiki Denslow may have met Baum at the Chicago Press Club; both men were members. Besides The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, Denslow also illustrated Baum’s books By the Candelabra’s Glare, Father Goose: His Book, and Dot and Tot of Merryland. Baum and Denslow held the copyrights to most of these works jointly. After Denslow quarreled with Baum over royalty shares from…

Eventually it all returns to busty girls and robots.  This interpretation of the WOZ characters was done by Ryan Stegman for the cover of Midnight Kiss #2 published by Markosia. This is my interpretation of the characters from the Wizard of Oz if they suddenly became much tougher and grittier than in the movie.  This was actually the cover for issue 2 of Midnight Kiss and these characters play a HUGE role in the book.  If you look closely, you will notice that there is a shadow over the picture and frame, and a very slight reflection in the glass. …
