There are lots of artists whose work I admire.
That criteria alone do not narrow the choice down for me.
However, as far as covers go, one Bob Larkin work does check all the boxes.

I have several artists whose art I enjoy greatly but I don't have a favourite artist per se.
Here's a cover I love by ChrisCross.

Like many, it's difficult to pick a favorite artist for myself as there are instances when I prefer one to another, but books by Howard Chaykin always seems to get my money. I wanted so much to go full on Chaykin and post the removed cover for Divided States of Hysteria as being pretty symbolic of Chaykin's style, but it doesn't appear to have ever appeared on anything. So, I'm going mainstream and some Lantern Love.

My taste in comic art is like my taste in music, I like what I like. However Alex Ross does have many impressive covers.

To differentiate a bit. Dale Keown, who would be the artist for the Smart Hulk storyline, which I always enjoyed.

[QUOTE=Ravin' Ray;4986487]....It was also ahead of its time with the phenomenon of paparazzi. Although one can say that Jackie Kennedy in the 60's started it, the notoriety reached its peak much later with Princess Diana.

Pre-Jackie the star-stalking photogs, etc., were already (or concurrently) prevalent in Europe, what with starlets and celebs and the like at Cannes and other places. Fellini famously memorialized this in his 1960 film La Dolce Vita, which includes a photographer character named Paparazzo...purported to be the origin of the word "paparazzi" (plural for paparazzo).

One of my favorite cover artists is Adam Hughes

[QUOTE=seismic-2;4986670]OK, I've used this cover before, but I'm going to use it again. So sue me.[/QUOTE]

Same here!
Great covers posted here by my favorites (plural!) Carl Barks, Barry Smith, and many more. It will be tough to choose, not to mention to even come up with my own selection! Maybe I should just go with a placeholder

If this were asked 25 years ago, wonder how many would be Liefeld or McFarlane.
