    Default Rags Morales DC book?

    Man this artist is such a great fit for Hawkman.
    I'm currently reading Hawkman book one by Johns and will get book two as well.
    Does anyone know if he'll be working on a DC book anytime soon?
    Best Hawkman artist IMO 10/10

    I sure hope we see him back at DC soon. I loved his BLACK CONDOR.

    Weren't they having a problem at the beginning of the New52 with his not being able to meet his deadlines on Action Comics?

    He seems to have more recently been doing some cover artwork for Dynamite.

    On a website (http://ragsagainstthemachine.net/) there's various art he's been working on, including a nice one of the Golden Age Black Cat (Linda Turner) originally published by Harvey Comics:

    Wow I thought I was the only one who remembered that book! Good stuff.

    Loved Rags on Identity Crisis, Hawkman and Action Comics. Wasn't so crazy about his Wonder Woman run though; maybe because it was jarringly different than Drew Johnson's style (which was gorgeous!).

    HOURMAN was my favourite book from Rags.

    Hopefully they’ll get him a better inker than what he had on Action.

    Incredible penciler. Here are a couple of commissions I picked up from him on the resale market a few years ago:

    I think I've heard of this character before but she looks like a proto-Black Canary.

    I loved his work on the old Advanced Dungeons & Dragons: Forgotten Realms series that DC published in the late '80s. He's an excellent fantasy illustrator.
    Continuity, even in a "shared" comics universe is often insignificant if not largely detrimental to the quality of a comic.

    Nobody cares about what you don't like, they barely care about what you do like.

    That's Black Cat from Harvey comics, first published in 1941. She was a Hollywood stuntwoman in her secret identity. The comic was quite popular and was probably an influence on Bob Kanigher and Carmine Infantino in creating the Black Canary (the Cat and the Canary). Lee Elias is the artist most closely associated with Black Cat and he had a Milton Caniff art style, which Infantino also had at the time.

    Rags is an amazing artist and I absolutely loved his work on Hourman.
