Darwyn Cooke

Darwyn Cooke's NEW FRONTIER slipcase edition book is stunning. Look here for more samples.

Last week, I wasn't even sure who Darwyn Cooke was. And now that Alex from Rocketship turned me on to his great work, I'm hooked on him. Cooke did, among a great many other things, the graphics for the Shuster Awards, as well as the recent Toronto Comics Art Festival. Some amazing work here, and if you haven't heard of him, then please take a look at the link above.

And I just picked up his version of WIll Eisner's SPIRIT this week. The Belleville News Demoscrat has the story. (Hat tip to Dirk Deppey's JOURNALISTA! site.)
