Favorite Batman Artist

[Restingvoice]

3. Andy Kubert (90's version)

That looks like Miller slash Knight slash Prometheus slash Wing Knight or whatever Jason's called in Batman Inc
Basically armored knight
What's the lore?

Neal Adams truly is awesome

Agreed. His Batman is great, but I'll always LOVE his Talia:

Looks better then the Bat armor that Miller gave him. I mean at least this one has the Bat symbol on.

I know, right? Miller will always be a favorite, but Kubert's additional detail puts him in the lead (but just barely ).

Jason's Wingman, you mean.

What's the lore?

That image came from the first Batman VS. Predator miniseries (1991).

I totally love Mikel Janin. He might be my favorite Batman artist these days.

Also love :

- Jock
- Dustin Nguyen
- Doug Manhke (he's awesome in everything he does tho)
- Jason Fabok (my favorite cb artist overall)
- Clay Mann!

EDIT:

I forgot Pat Gleason! Ah man, that magnificent silent issue of Batman & Robin.

Really great choices. I love the clarity and power Janin brings. Jock's sketchiness is incredibly powerful, especially in things like his Black Mirror, Batwoman: Cutter, or the covers for Batman #50 and Action 1000. Manhke is extremely talented, and I already put Fabok on my top list myself. As for Clay Mann - his stuff is so beautiful, with a lovely line to it. And, of course, Gleason's polished, thick line, with shiny light details is incredibly appealing (I miss him at DC so much).

Agreed. His Batman is great, but I'll always LOVE his Talia:

Totally Agree.
Talia>Selina for me. Her personality is truly enticing.

Williams III. The Black Glow is one of my favorite Batman stories mostly because of the art. There is no art that suits Batman better. I wish Jonathan Hickman and Williams III would do a long run on Batman.

I didn't care for his work on Detective at the time, but my kid has been reading his Batwoman run and I appreciate his work a lot more now. Very beautiful and great layouts.
