Alex Ross Sketchbook 2012 SDCC Preview

It's January the start of a new year. The parties are over and there isn't another holiday in sight for at least another month. We'll try to get you through the day and the month the best way we can. Today as a little tease we're previewing the Alex Ross 2012 SDCC Sketchbook. Don't worry we'll have the full one out shortly.

About the sketchbook. Once again Alex Ross has done it. He's compiled a wide variety of art from all the different books that he does. Some may have wanted more of the more popular character sketches, but I think he gives fair coverage to all the work that he does. It really shows his versatility and ability, we can say that he pretty much makes any character look stunning. The size o the sketchbook is big measuring at 8.5'x11" most other sketchbooks are half that size. Which means that you really get a good look at what's going on in the pencils and the detail is extra fantastic. I'll let you gauge this on your own. Enjoy the preview.

 We've got Superman, Batman vs the Joker, And the Legion of Superheroes. Check back soon for the rest of it.

Simone Bianchi 2008 Full Sketchbook Review

Here we are Christmas is just around the corner and we tried not to disappoint. Here we're going back to 2008 and looking at the Simone Bianchi Sketchbooks of years past. This one in particular is geared towards any X-men fan. Right around this time was when Simone started working on the Astonishing X-men with Warren Ellis. THe very beginning of when things started to get big for him. You'll see more tight finished pencils in this sketchbook and lots of x-men covers. Mostly they are the sketches of the covers he worked on which I personally like to see. There's a lot less draft work and it seems like there's a lot of thought put into what was going to be published on each page. You'll see mostly the typical X-Men costumes, I think mostly because he wasn't going to take to many big risk yet this soon. But the style in which he executes the pencils is amazing even back in 2008. Enjoy this one and we'll have the filler years to come in a short time. Leave your own thoughts and let us know what you think about this, we always love to hear from our readers. Take special note of the back cover. Every year that photo changes. Interesting and peculiar.

Superman Man of Steel HD Trailer 2

Here's the newly released Superman Man of Steel Trailer 2. We see a little bit of Zod the villain. But this is a much more serious Superman Movie. I'm hoping we get some more iconic superman scenes in the next trailer. This is a bit of a slow trailer so maybe they're going for story more then just pure action. We'll see in the coming months. For now enjoy the trailer in HD.
