090521 My Top 25 Comic Book Artist, Part I

The list that follows is certainly going to be one of the most divided lists I will ever make. This is a five part list of My Top 25 Comic Book Artist. I have been working on this list for more than three months now, and while some people will agree with the choices I made, those same people are going to wonder why I didn’t put so and so on this list for whatever reasons. And I understand that. Comics have a way of doing that to the hard core fans. So before any of you fans out there get mad, understand, this is just my own personal list based on my taste. This is not the definitive list of comic artist, just one fans opinion on what he likes. So while I recognize the contributions and influence that legendary people like Jack Kirby, Bill Sienkiewicz, Frank Miller, and many others have had in this medium and its current artists, that does not make them my personal favorites, and I ask that you respect that as you look through this list. So without anymore pause, here is my list…
