It's ironic that these guys add the visual medium to the world of comic books, but many don't know what they even look like. The artists of the comic book world are many and there are so many kinds. Some are the pencillers who create the framework and style for the page, then there are the inkers that go over the pencils and add that stark contrast with black and white. Then comes the colorists that add tone, texture, and...well...color to the page. But it doesn't stop there. There are painters and digital artists and don't forget the letterers that make art from words, logos, and titles. There are so many artists in the chain of command for a comic book that it is pretty staggering to think about. Check out this gallery of great comic book artists. The list will continue to expand and grow, so check back to see if your favorite is here.
