Marc SilvestriLegend

Bill SienkiewiczLegend

Comic Artist, Illustrator, Painter

Sienkiewicz treats a comics page as a surface to attack, with paint, collage, photography, scratched ink and outright abstraction. The New Mutants and Elektra: Assassin showed mainstream readers a superhero book could look like a gallery piece, and that permission runs through decades of cartooning since.

Alex RossLegend

Comic Artist, Cover Artist, Painter

Ross paints superheroes as though they were standing in the room: real light, real weight, real fabric. Marvels and Kingdom Come reframed familiar characters as monuments seen from street level, and his covers are now the images many readers picture when they think of these characters at all.
