klarion!
Klarion the Witch Boy is a super minor DC character who, for my money, was pretty much the standout in Grant Morrison's "Seven Soldiers of Victory" pre-series miniseries event. I think I read a handful of the full team comics, but that format never did it for me given that Klarion (in Morrison's version a rebellious escapee from an underground society comprised of the Puritan witch descendants of the lost population of Roanoke) is not really a team player type of character. Plus Frazer Irving's art was a standout for me.
I mean, I liked the kid enough to name one of my cats after his cat.
So, really, these make me very happy!
They are by Jemma Salume, who I think is very very good.
She's done a bunch of stuff for Project: Rooftop, which is a consistently entertaining site if you are at all into superhero redesigns.
The Klarion cover was for DC Fifty-TOO!, where indie artists took DC's whole "lets reboot our whole line" thing and designed the DC comics that they'd want to read.
Because, to be honest, in your face, Jim Lee. Man fuck that guy. His artwork is all explosions and shoulder pads and women who look exactly alike. Seriously, he did the art for "Batman: Hush" and I could not tell Selina Kyle apart from Talia al Ghul and that? Is bad art.
To be honest, I would have read the CRAP out of "Lois Lane: Girl Reporter" and I don't even particularly LIKE Lois Lane. But the art? So amazing:
Daniel Krall should do more comic arts.
