Guest penciler...

Last night, I took out of of my numerous alts, C-Spot Ron, for a spin and it got thinking about the bit of fan fiction I wrote about him (it can be found here, if you insist...). To be be precise, I asked myself, "Self, if you could put this little gem of writing into an actual comic book, who do you see as the ideal penciler?".

The answer: Kevin Maguire.

So, just for a lark, who do you see penciling your own fan fiction ?

(And for those who never wrote fan fic, just tell us who's your favorite draughtsman and we'll overlook it this time... )

You probably mean Jack Kirby, who worked with Lee on Captain America, Fantastic Four and Thor amongst other. He passed away in 1994

Good choice, SK: "The King" was one of the all-time greats !

Humm... 45 views and only one reply. Maybe I laid on the "I'm So Great" schtick a bit thick.

OK, let's start over.

==============

I was thinking about the story I wrote for C-Spot Ron (about a halpless interdimensional would-be hero) and I thought that Kevin Maguire - based on his work on "Justice League", "StrikeBack!" and "Formerly Known As The Justice League" - would do a great job drawing it.

So...

What comic artist (or any other artist) would you see drawing your characters in a comic book ?

My problem is, I don't really care about comic books. I don't know any illustrators.

Hm, I think I go first for John Byrne of X-men, Alpha Flight, Superman and others. I've always liked his style.

There are plenty of artists I'd love to see illustrate my stuff, but John Cassady is god as far as I'm concerned. I have a cover and an interior piece from comics he did (this one,
which doesn't appear anywhere online any more lol because I think it's a bit graphic...)
And an interior page I really should scan, since it's just gorgeous, of Planetary.

Walt Simonson, though there are 3 others about a nanometer behind him. Walt's run on X-Factor is pretty central in my collecting days, his Thor seemed definitive to me and even though I didn't care, I loved that all his girls had giant hooters that would get a real super hero killed due to weight drag.

For informations sake, the other 3 are Jim Lee, Mike Mignola and George Perez.....OH, and Art Adams too lol

And then finally I have to add John Byrne is a god to me, everything he touched was gold back then. His She-Hulk series was one of the best drawn, funniest series I'd read when it came out, still read them now.
