Art For Art’s Sake #71: The Devil Gets Artistic
by Richard Bruton
Another week rolls round, the world might be in chaos but at least you can rely on Art For Art’s Sake…
Let us begin with two very different interpretations of the good Doctor… first, a classic Dave Gibbons…
And then a touch of the wonderful Marc Ellerby…
Mike Allred – Madman…
Kevin Wada – Hellcat
Henry Flint Dredd…
Hulk by Ricardo Lope…
Iron Fist by Steve Rude…
And another Iron Fist by Jonathan Lankry
Jeff Lemire does Stan Sakai’s Usagi…
John McCrea and the Bat
Larry Marder – Beanworld
Lissa Treiman – great mic drop on the cover of Giant Days
Kevin Maguire – Lois Lane
Marc Laming – Harley
Marguerite Sauvage – Barbarella
And to end this week… a gallery of Devils… Matt Wagner’s Grendel is one of those comics for me – the comics that hit at just the right time growing up, the comic that made me realise that there was so much more to comics than just Marvel and DC, the comic that led to so much more.
It’s a series that has had so many wonderful stories, from so many wonderful artists, all of them owing everything to the ideas of the series creator, Matt Wagner. So, a gallery of devils…
