Art For Art’s Sake #216: Awesome, Amazing, Artistic Genius… Aragones!
by Richard Bruton
Art For Art’s Sake – it’s sequential art time again folks… and ain’t that great?
Plenty of comic goodness to come this week, so many great purveyors of the sequential arts, all ending with the wonder of Sergio Aragones’ Groo; always a joy to see.
But first, let’s go with Alan Davis‘ covers for Knights of Pendragon #1
Koji Sugito
Mike Mignola – X-Men Classic covers… first one inked by P Craig Russell
Carol Lay
Annie Wu – Wonder Woman
Will Eisner – The Spirit
Barry Windsor-Smith – The Head of the Baptist, 1978
And back when he was just Barry Smith…
A couple of Brian Bolland pieces… from BEM fanzine, 1980…
And a Lady Blackhawk…
Bill Sienkiewicz…
Babs Tarr…
Art Spiegelman…
Jamie Hewlett – The girl with the Tank
And I’ll end this particular A4AS with the genius of Sergio Aragones… his work on Groo is one of those books that will forever raise a smile and often a huge belly laugh as well…
