Favorite artists

So, what are your favorite artists these days? I mean, I couldn't begin to think of who'd be my favorites of all time, but current favorites are:

Steve Epting
Moon and Ba
Michael Lark
Ryan Kelly
Sean Murphy
Adrian Alphona

If they publish, I'll at least be interested. And likely buy.

Right now I'm really enjoying Chris Bachalo and Rebekah Isaacs. I nearly picked up Champions for Humberto Ramos alone. I still may.

Isaacs is very good as well, yeah.

Ramos is the reason why I almost didn't pick up Champions.

Really? Was the art poorly done for the issue or have you just not really been a fan of his in general?

I haven't read the issue yet, but I'm no fan of him in general. Well, his art. It's well done, it's just not my style. Too cartoony.

Understandable. One of the first books I read was Out There by him and Brian Augustyn and I've been a fan since. There are some books I think he's best on, like Spider-Man, but when he's on others sometimes he's just not a great fit.

Greg Capullo's art grew on me.
Fiona Staples
Whoever the guy is on Southern Bastards
Whoever the person was on the first run of Gotham Academy
Ed Benes
Frank Cho both for the cheesecake factor
A lot of the usuals really

Frank Cho is a great artist, even apart from the chessecake factor.
