Awesome Art Picks: Wolverine, Batman, Magik, and More

Each week we gather up the coolest comic book art you won't see in actual comics. The reason you won't is because artists often draw sketches for fun or commissions and post them on their websites, blogs, and Tumblr. Some artists even pre-arrange commissions through their websites so be sure to check them out.

Mike Henderson posted new art on his Tumblr. You can buy his original art HERE.

Cliff Chiang posted new commissions from Baltimore on his Tumblr.

Rod Reis posted some more pre-NYCC commissions on his Tumblr. He posted his show commission info HERE.

Daniel HDR posted some pre-NYCC commissions on his Tumblr too.

Dustin Nguyen will also be going to NYCC. Here's some new art he posted on his Tumblr.

That's it for this week. Let us know which ones you really dug.

There's a chance we might not have an installment next week since we'll be running around NYCC. We'll do our best and hope to see you there.

Samurai Jack!!! Dustin Nguyen's Batman/Daredevil sketches were A-MAZING! So was the X-Men work by Peter Nguyen.

Those Nightwing/Robin pieces by To are great.

Why haven't they got Philip Tan doing a black and white comic yet? His pencils are awesome and so full of depth. I'm stumped why they aren't cashing in on this.

@timotheus316: Philip will be doing a book at Image with James Robinson called HEAVEN.

Nauck was a busy guy and that Jubilee cover looks great.

"almost got 'im" XD LOVED that episode

How Phillip tans image is not one of the many covers for DKR III is beyond me.

Dang, those are some excellent Henderson pieces this week (as always I guess).

Oh man that Mike McKone Starfire.
That Phillip Tan is insane as well. Loving Todd Nauck's as usual. The Cliff Chiang pizza dog is so sad but so good. The Marcio Takara Rogue makes me super jealous of how good it is. Pretty amazing crop of art this week!

Really fantastic choices. Some really inspiring stuff.

Do most people go with blank covers or sketch books or just commissions on what paper they choose? Probably not the place. But curious cause I just recently got into comics.

Dustin Ngyuen's Castiel made me chuckle.

And those Dick and Barbara as Robin and Batgirl/Nightwing and Oracle sketches are really great.

Wow, great week. All the Batman and X Men stuff here is amazing!

@hempknight757: It varies from artist to artist and person to person. Some people do have their own sketchbooks where they keep them all. That way they can choose one with heavy stock paper or just have a place to keep them all contained. Sketch covers usually are high quality paper that allows for the sketches. I have seen some sketch covers that had a glossy finish which gave an artist a tough time but he managed to make it work. Most artists do and should have their own sketch paper.

Ottley's Adventure Time picture is the best

Ugh, Todd Nauck's art is so goddamn generic, I feel like I'm looking at the same stuff every week.

Is it strange that I find the female loki oddly alluring.

This one.

Absolutely. How cool is it to see Xavier and each of the O5 at their most evil on one page!? I hope a color version surfaces soom :)

This is so awesome.

Dude Nauck's Jubilee has some skinny ass fingers.

@thunderscream

Agreed...I would love to see an inked and colored version of this.

But what is up with winged Iceman? I don't recall that version. I figured the most evil version of Bobby would be when he flipped out in the Age of Apocalypse (Uncanny X-Force) version and went crazy with his powers.

I think that's Miyamoto Musashi(from Vagabond). Jack has a white kimono and usually doesn't sport a beard.

You can even spot a little floating Magneto up there :)

Definitely need a colored version of this!
