Sketchbook - Paul Gulacy

The story of this sketch is told in my con report from the day I got it. Paul Gulacy is a really nice guy, and he was discussing his new job on Catwoman with the many people visiting his table. He had some art samples from the issue, and I really liked his take. Admittedly, I don't read the book, but seeing what Gulacy did was enough to tempt me (and I also sneaked a peek at the sneak peek issue in my retailer's package, and I'm even more impressed with it after seeing the finished art). I understand that the first Gulacy issue comes out next Wednesday. Be sure to look through it.


AQUAMAN

This is a fairly light pencil sketch, with a neat side view of an older Aquaman's face. This one brings to mind the Aquaman from Kingdom Come, who was noble and regal, and had seen a lot. This is King Arthur, looking across his city. I like it.

To see all the sketches I have permission to post so far, check out my Sketchbook Page. If you have any contact information for any of the other artists I'm trying to contact, please e-mail me. Click for a random Aquaman sketch.
