Each week we gather up the coolest comic book art that won't be appearing in actual comics. The reason they won't is because artists often do sketches for fun and commissions and post them on their websites, blogs, and Tumblrs. Some artists even pre-arrange commissions through their sites so be sure to check them out.
Mike Henderson posted some more "warm up" sketches on his Instagram. Looks like he's pretty dang warmed up.
Dustin Nguyen drew a "Disney Princess" to impress his daughter and posted it on his Tumblr. At San Diego Comic-Con, he had more head sketches and I picked up Wonder Woman pic from him.
Adam Hughes posted this Batgirl sketch on his Twitter that he drew at a panel at Comic-Con.
Peter Nguyen did the Mystery Art Challenge at Comic-Con (which you'll see below) and posted some sketches on his Tumblr.
Skottie Young posted some new Daily Sketches on his Tumblr which he puts up for sale. Whenever he draws original characters, you can't help but want to know more about them.
Chris Burnham will have a Rocket Raccoon print for sale at Boston Comic Con next weekend. He also posted some commissions and five-minute sketches on his Twitter page.
Rod Reis posted more art to make you drool on his Tumblr.
Chris Samnee posted a bunch of new art on his blog.
Robert Atkins posted this Black Adam commission on his blog.
Joel Gomez posted some commissions from SDCC on his Tumblr.
Marcus To posted this Rocket and Groot sketch on his Tumblr.
Mike McKone also posted some art from SDCC on his Twitter page.
Agnes Garbowska also did the Art Challenge and posted some SDCC commissions on her Tumblr.
Yildiray Cinar did this Batman pic for Batman Day and posted it on his Instagram.
Cliff Chiang working on a Batman story with Brian Azzarello? Sadly, it never happened. You can read some details on his Tumblr post.
Freddie Williams II posted a bunch of SDCC art on his Twit Pic page.
Kevin Wada posted some more art he did at HeroesCon on his Tumblr.
Philip Tan posted a couple new sketches on his Facebook page.
Todd Nauck was pretty busy at Comic-Con (and still found time to do the Art Challenge). Check out the commissions he posted on his Tumblr.
The Mystery Art Challenge happened at San Diego Comic-Con. This installment featured Rocket Raccoon and a...lava lamp. The artists were not given any heads up before. They have seconds to try to come up with something to leave their mark on the character.
