It's that time again. Each week we gather up the coolest comic book art we can find that will not be appearing in comics. The reason they won't is because artists often do sketches and commissions and post them on their blogs, Tumblrs and Twitter pages. Some artists even take commissions online so be sure to check out their sites to find out more.
Philip Tan is continuing his massive posting of character sketches on his Facebook page. Check out his Magneto, Black Canary and Rogue.
Ryan Stegman was at Fan Expo last weekend and posted some of his commissions on his Tumblr page.
Each week Brett Booth posts a sketch on his blog and here you see his take on Cyclops during the X-Factor days.
Mike McKone posted a few different sketches on his TwitPic page this week.

Chris Giarrusso posted a bit this week on his site. He did an AVENGERS VS. X-MEN sketch (which you can buy, if it hasn't already sold), his Jack Kirby 'Wake Up and Draw' entry along with a bunch of past Tribute Tuesdays he's done of Kirby's work.

That's it for this week. I'm sure we'll see some more sketches from Fan Expo in the coming week. I imagine the artists are still recuperating after a busy con.
