Simone Bianchi SDCC San Diego 2012 Sketchbook Preview

This is our first and a premier for the League. This time we're going European, Italian to be exact. Here's the preview of whats to come. Definitely one of our top favorite artist, the water colour style of his work is incredible. As well as his character composition which makes him a standout cover artist. We recently acquired a handful of these from different years so be ready for a real treat. In the mean time we'll only be able to tease you with these couple of images.

Yes that is Sabertooth Ripping off Wolverine's Face.

Of Course There's Batman

That's it for today Check back soon to see the rest.
