Hahaha! I was literally about to make this thread!
My absolute favorite artist is definitely Alex Ross, there's a reason why his paintings go for over 10k and his booth is the biggest artist booth at San Diego Comic Con. He is what inspired me into being a comic book artist.

Like not only is he an excellent artist, but he is an excellent storyteller and willing to draw less in order to say more (see Thor v Phoenix sequence). He has a mastery of thin lines that rivals Quitely. He can render ethnicities in a way many cannot. He knows fashion and evidently loves the women he draws. He's clearly a comics artist in the ways McKelvie kind of isn't, but still his pencils feel fresh and contemporary.
I'm going to toss Javier Rodriguez and Chris Samnee into the mix.
