Awesome thread Chris C!  JH Williams III's run on Batwoman is just stellar and really pushed panel and page design!

For some reason my iPad isn't copying urls, just Google: jh williams 3 batwoman.  You'll be blown away.

His run on Detective Comics was good, but his Batwoman stuff is utterly awesome!  Time to pick up some issues or the graphic novel!

Todd McFarlane.  Y'know, from when he drew stuff.   :o

I always liked it when they doodled something in the barcode space in the retailer versions.

I still marvel (no pun intended) at Bisley's Lobo.  Top notch work all around.  Actually, I marvel at all of Bisley's work.

Joe Mad! is amazing and is the whole reason I bought Darksiders.  Wish he would get back to Battlechasers and get a freakin' inker!!

His is right on the line where I am still ok with it, but my opinion is that they need to bring the inkers back to comics.  Some modern stuff is way under-inked in my opinion.

I have a hard time making out panels!  Ultimates 3 #1 was so dark with all the K tones to make up for the lack of inking.
