Batman Art During The New 52
I'm a 35 year old Canadian living in Ontario. I read comics, I love to draw and I collect comic art. I also teach karate, play hockey, and am a dad to 3 girls! My comic book passion lies with Batman and his pals with Nightwing taking a very close #2 favourite position. I began collecting comic art in 2013 and I have several commissions done by Ken Lashley and an amazing Francis Manapul Batman. As well I have sold a few of my own creations!
Taking over Detective comics after his opening run on The Flash, Francis Manapul has a style all his own when it comes to the art of comics. He paints in water colours but not in the hyper realistic Alex Ross way. In a way it’s like Capullo’s work in that it walks the line of being a bit cartoonish. The art is super expressive and Francis’ painting and storytelling techniques make for some amazing visuals.
