A quick sketch post. Haven’t drawn in ages due to various commitments.

DC dropped the first batch of #1 comics as part of The New 52 relaunch of the DC Universe (hashtag: #DCnU). Specifically…

  • ACTION COMICS #1
  • ANIMAL MAN #1
  • BATGIRL #1
  • BATWING #1
  • DETECTIVE COMICS #1
  • GREEN ARROW #1
  • HAWK AND DOVE #1
  • JUSTICE LEAGUE INTERNATIONAL #1
  • MEN OF WAR #1
  • O.M.A.C. #1
  • STATIC SHOCK #1
  • STORMWATCH #1
  • SWAMP THING #1

I picked them all up. A total Marvel Zombie growing up, I instinctively harbour much resistance to anything DC; mostly because the long history has made their books too inaccessible. The new relaunch is perfect for someone like me.

Read Hawk & Dove first and was disappointed despite calibrating my expectations. Action Comics and more so Swamp Thing were my highlights. Yanick Paquette‘s art is sensational. I try to ape it in this 5-minute sketch.

Yanick Paquette-Style

Looking forward to the next batch of #1s.
