an army of batmen!!

[CLARKY]

again!pursuing my idea of an army of batmen, I propose U something: to constitute a whole panorama of all the batmen existing according to each penciller, director, cartoonist!
here's the game :
find the name of the precedent post and then post your pic of someone's batman from feet (or knee at least) to head, clear and visible, and illustrating the style of the penciller.If the penciller has changed style , U can post the same guy twice ( since the batman is not the same!).
-just put the name of the penciller.
-just put the name of the cartoonist designer.
-but put the name of the director AND the designer of the movie.
I begin easy :

I dont know who drew this one but it looks really cool :up:
Hmmm....I wanna say the Hindelbrandt Bros.? SP? German spellings are difficult to remember. Let's see, first names...one's Greg and the other escapes me. One pencils and the other paints. May not be them, but definitely mimics their style if it's not. They love dynamic perspective and multiple colored light sources.

Yes Neal Adams!

[CLARKY]

I wasn't sure 4 N.Adams.when I began this game I though " yeah easy 4 most of it....." and finally I was already lost since the Klaus Janson's pic!!!

mafia lord falcone, it's your turn to post a batman (from knee(or feet) to head)

[Carmine Falcone]

okay here:

[Antonello Blueberry]

Okay: This one is easy:

[Carmine Falcone]

I have no idea :o

[CLARKY]

simon bisley?

[Antonello Blueberry]

simon bisley?
No, try again... Let's say it's the cover of a GN with the main baddie of Batman Begins.

[CLARKY]

I know I know... aron Wiesenfeld?

[DarkKnightJRK]

http://www.comicscontinuum.com/stories/0211/09/batmandeath3.jpg

Going off topic, but Death and the Maidens (where that pic is from) kicks ass. :up:

Ok, continue. :)

[Antonello Blueberry]

Okay: This one is easy:
http://www.pmdesign.org/school/final/Images/batmanshreaded2.jpg
I thought it was too easy. Ok, this is the cover for a Gn featuring the main baddie from Batman Begins, written by Mike w. Barr back in 1987 and in that story happens a thing that was later wiped by continuity (or at least ignored) but considered in Kingdom Come.

[CLARKY]

isn't a story where he fights a kind of minotaurus near a lava pit?and his arm (batman's) is completely broken?

[Antonello Blueberry]

Minotaurus? Lava pit? No.
Think of sex and Mikhail Gorbachev... :rolleyes:

[deadboy700]

He knocks up Talia and she has his kid... A child that only ever re-appeared in Kingdom Come.

Still dunno who the artist is, though...

[Antonello Blueberry]

OK. Your time is up. That was the cover of Son of the Demon by Jerry Bingham.
Let's try something far more easier.

I Love Norm Breyfogle, especially that issue, with the Voodoo lady, and the joker.

You guys will never guess this :p

Oh man... it's surely the same artist as on the cover to Batan in The Eighties..

[CLARKY]

rraaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhh!I can't believe it!!! I begin this thread , I was sure to "win" , I was sure to know most of them, I ....I...I'm a real loser!
OK I didn't know at all 4 Jerry Bingham' s pic (congratulations Antonello Blueberry U got us all!!) then I knew 4 Norm Breygfole but it was too late and now...shame on me.. I DON'T KNOW!!!!!I DON'T KNOW!!!!!I DON'T KNOW!!!!!
happy?

Curt swan?

[Antonello Blueberry]

Bob McLeod. Do you want a difficult one or an easy one?

This one isn't that easy, too. It's clearly somthing done right after the first Batman movie. Good inking and someway a familiar style.

ah!
Of course.or U can leave now with 1000 $.your choice.

YEAH!Bravo!
Brett Booth!It was difficult!U have to admit it's a cool pic, isn't it?
U're good!your turn now!

[KingOfDreams]

This thread gives me an idea. Here's a possible story for the comics: Flash forward to the future. Bruce Wayne has retired as Batman. However, he runs an academy to train people to be Batmen. First they start out as Robins, then when the time is right, they graduate to Batmen. Therfore, you have whole squads of Batmen and Robins to fight crime. They could all have cool, different costumes and maybe a couple of the people would have different attributes and abilities besides the normal ones you associate with Batman and Robin. And the current Robin could be the new main Batman maybe. I know, this sounds a little bit too X-Men, doesn't it?

Been done. It was a prestige story with art by Norm Breyfogle.

[harley]

Blueberry, U seem to know a lot of penciller!Isn't it your turn to post a pic?I've read that U have a difficult one.Let's see!

[The Dark Guybrush]

this one should be easy:

:hellboy: :cool: :p

[Antonello Blueberry]

That one is Mike Mignola, again. And this one?
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v340/Antoblueberry/Batman05.jpg

You'll never get it. So an easy one, too.

bill sienkiewicz?

[Boss]

the first one looks like DKR bats, but then again, Miller uses Sweet details :up:

[Antonello Blueberry]

bill sienkiewicz?
Yes, the easy one is Bill Sienkiewics. That's a panel from the Lapham/Sienk story that we'll probably never see in print.

[harley]

So it is my turn : here it is :
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v491/comicsfvr/J_batman.jpg


Thank you clarky for hosting my picture.

[Cobblepot]

I haven't got a clue.

[harley]

I give you a clue : it is during the 90es.

[Antonello Blueberry]

Joe Quesada?

[harley]

yes.exactly.Few years before being Mr I-hate-dc-and-I-don't-even-remember-what-is-dc .
you are good Blueberry!It is your turn now.Would you give us a hint for your hard pic?
(and repost it?)

[Cobblepot]

Joe Q???
I would have never guessed it!!! His style looks so much different then on Sword Of Azrael.

[Antonello Blueberry]

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v340/Antoblueberry/Batman05.jpg
Hint 1: He'll be working in a Batman miniseries soon. A painted one.
Hint 2: You've never seen his Batman before, probably. But you might have seen his Robin. In plain clothes.

[harley]

- Cobblepot : I think the arm of batman is typical of the daredevil of J.Quesada.But maybe is it more obvious now that U know the name.Personnally Except the arm&the legs I wouldn't have find....

- Antonello Blueberry : I don't know.Is the penciller still "famous"?Is it the penciller of Robin#1 back in the 90es?

[Antonello Blueberry]

That Batman wasn't that different from the Sword of Azrael, see the big eyes, the belt, the flapping cape.

The penciller in my image is a young artist, he just made some works for DC, in all his branches and will paint part of a miniseries during 2005. He's a friend of Jim Lee.

[CLARKY]

I don't know.Is he working 4 wildstorm studios?

[Cobblepot]

[QUOTE=harley]- Cobblepot : I think the arm of batman is typical of the daredevil of J.Quesada.But maybe is it more obvious now that U know the name.Personnally Except the arm&the legs I wouldn't have find....

The arms and legs with all their jugenstill styled lines should have given it away, but the facial expressions are so much different then in Sword Of Azrael.
Well it could have been the inker that changed that.

[Antonello Blueberry]

I don't know.Is he working 4 wildstorm studios?
Yes. He's a CLOSE friend of Jim Lee.

[CLARKY]

...Wait ...... I'm thinking.....robin in plain clothes? ......I don't know...wait...wait......

[gregtestagent]

That title "an army of batmen" reminds me of "The final confrontation" in Batman Returns soundtrack. http://www.putfile.com/media.php?n=finalconf http://www.putfile.com/media.php?n=finalconfcont may take a few seconds to play the track[s].

[CLARKY]

I love these songs.In what way does it remind U of "The final confrontation"?
Army of penguins/army of batmen?

[gregtestagent]

I love these songs.In what way does it remind U of "The final confrontation"?
Army of penguins/army of batmen?
the military theme and sound of it. I just imagine some ridiculous, and not fully thought-out, situation where Batman fans are coming to the rescue for their hero for some odd reason or another. It's just a silly daydream I have. I have this hobby of listening to soundtracks and imagining things with the music. I'd go into detail with this "final confrontation" one but I don't want to embarrass myself. I posted something similar with the Dock-Ock suite on the first Spider-Man 2 various artists CD. I used my imagination, and that suite, to make a Juggernaut live-action movie sequence. I wrote it all down. The thread died from lack of interest.

[Antonello Blueberry]

You are all too young, aren't you?
I said: One of the FINEST artists to come out in the eighties.
Darwyn was a teen in the eighties.
And you can't solve riddles. You'd be lousy Robins.

[CLARKY]

Or may be you are too old, aren't you? :)
I don't know...mmmm. let say....carmine infantino?

[harley]

Jim Aparo?

[Antonello Blueberry]

The Eighties! Carmine Infantino had his best period in the sixties.
And maybe I'm too old.

[harley]

I don't know .......... :(
a hint?

[Antonello Blueberry]

Read some of the posts before this one. Not Aparo.

[harley]

I've already done it of course.
So My conclusion so far is that it is not Gil Kane/Joe Staton/Pete Costanza...
I keep searching.....

[Antonello Blueberry]

It's a harsh person.

[Cobblepot]

Did he have a run in Batman or Detective?

[Antonello Blueberry]

Did he have a run in Batman or Detective?
No, he did a prestige format miniseries in the early 90's. Very old fashioned with a lighter approach to Batman.

[Antonello Blueberry]

So? You give up? When the going gets though, what do you do?

[Cobblepot]

No I just had to work!
But I have no idea, it's not a book I own.
And the artist doesn't ring any bells with me.

[CLARKY]

yeah....me too..I have to work...but for the moment I don't know .
Every riddle from you Blueberry were too difficult 4 me :( I dont give up (yet) let us a little time blueberry...
dammit.the next one.......I'll find it.

do you want a easy one oe a hard one?I mean, at the beginning it was just a panorama, not hard riddles (hard but with clever clues : Harsh=rude :up: )...but hard ones suit me fine (if it is good pic!) so do U wanna a hard one or an easy one?

Blueberry, U're going to be mad at me but He looks like alex Ross' preliminary drawings.I don't think it is him of course but maybe this penciller inspired A.Ross?Giant bat , big belt, the same face (eyes..).It a pic of a 80es penciller?

No, this guy is active right now. I'd say he's been having a peak in his popularity in the last months.

[Antonello Blueberry]

So, is that difficult guessing the identity of this artist?
Think about tattered clothing...

[Antonello Blueberry]

Time is ticking. I'm giving you just another day.

[chinochi]

Rags Morales .... who draws Hawkman and oddly enough got his first really big break drawing a Ragman limited series for DC back in the 90's

[Antonello Blueberry]

Rags Morales .... who draws Hawkman and oddly enough got his first really big break drawing a Ragman limited series for DC back in the 90's
And we have a winner! Btw, Rags is now on Wonder Woman after his successful Identity Crisis series. The other one is not a Frank Quitely's piece of art.
Now it's your turn.

[harley]

I love Rags Morales art.I liked hawkman a lot and I.Crisis even more... But I didn't recognize his work.:(

[chinochi]

Here is a marker sketch by a very prolific Bat-artist. The piece is signed but I think it's nearly an impossible signature to decipher. So, I thought it would still be challenging.



http://www.graphiccollectibles.com/catalog/images/1094758949.jpg

[Cobblepot]

That's Brian Stelfreeze.

[harley]

it looks like eduardo Risso.

[Antonello Blueberry]

I think it's Stelfreeze, too.

[chinochi]

Cobblepot and the european cowboy are correct! It is definately the very talented and underappreciated Brian Stelfreeze.

[Cobblepot]

Here's mine.
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v491/kwhuisman/bktdba.jpg

[CLARKY]

it's recent isn't it?

[Cobblepot]

Not very VERY recent.
He's done some Batman work before.

[Cobblepot]

Oh and that was during Knightquest or Knightfall.

[Antonello Blueberry]

Oh and that was during Knightquest or Knightfall.
Are you sure?

[Cobblepot]

Yep he drew a story that was during Knightfall, with Azbats.

[Antonello Blueberry]

Yep he drew a story that was during Knightfall, with Azbats.
Another Graham Nolan's piece of art? You already posted one.

[Cobblepot]

Nope
His cowl is very distinctive.
He also draws a pretty nifty Punisher.

[Cobblepot]

Here's mine.
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v491/kwhuisman/bktdba.jpg

The cowl should give him away.

[Antonello Blueberry]

Ron Wagner?

[Cobblepot]

No.
Think marvel team-up.

[chinochi]

ummm....i'll try a wild stab in the dark:

Alex Malkeev (sp?)

[Cobblepot]

No.

[Cobblepot]

Last hint, he drew a Batman Punisher cross-over.

[harley]

what?I remember one done by J.Romita Jr....
When you wrote Marvel Team-up, you wanted to say the recent one ultimate or the "real" first ones?

[Antonello Blueberry]

Barry Kitson.

[Cobblepot]

It's Barry Kitson.
I reffered to this book http://images.tfaw.com/coverst/med/b/batmanpunisher.jpg

[harley]

AAAH!
Too late!I agree with Blueberry : Kitson.

[Cobblepot]

Sorry

[harley]

:mad: :(


;) it's not a problem :)

[Antonello Blueberry]

My turn agai? This one is easy.
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v340/Antoblueberry/Batman8.jpg

[Cobblepot]

Why's it easy?
I don't really know this artist.
The head and the Bats look a tad like Scott McDaniels Batman but no it's not his.

[Antonello Blueberry]

Because this guy is one of the most successful artists, right now. He started with a bang some years ago, then worked on the most famous characters both at Marvel and DC. he was born in Italy, but he's not Italian.

[Cobblepot]

If I flip through my monthly Batman / Detective etc. books will I encounter him?

[Cobblepot]

Dave Johnson?

[Antonello Blueberry]

No Dave Johnson. You have to flip through some other Batman family title. Issues from let's say ten years ago. Wow, I'm getting old.

[Cobblepot]

Giuseppe Camuncoli

[Cobblepot]

I hope I wrote that correct.

[Antonello Blueberry]

That's the artist of the art I posted last month. Giuseppe "Cammo" Camuncoli still lives in Italy, will be one of the artist on Batman:Europa, a painted mini, and right now is working with Jim lee on "The Intimates" ("He's a CLOSE friend of Jim Lee").
The artist on this last piece of art is American, but was born in Italy, because his father was in the army.

[CLARKY]

Carlos Pacheco?

[Antonello Blueberry]

Pacheco is Spanish. But think of someone with a similar style who worked on some of the same titles.titles

[harley]

so you are going to be mad at me but... has Gary franck italian origins?.........no, of course not.But the pic looks like his style.
It's too round to be S.Larrocca, isn't it?And maybe is he spanish...
Jesus the only "italian" penciller I know are the authors of Cybersix.

Jesus the only "italian" penciller I know are the authors of Cybersix.
The authors of Cybersix are not Italian, they are from Argentina.
Larroca is Spanish, like Pacheco. And Gary Frank, I don't know, but his Batman is slightly different.
But I've said the artist is American, he just happened to be born in Italy. His family name sounds more Spanish, though.
He's a fantastic penciller.

[Antonello Blueberry]

Yes, Harley is again the winner.

[CLARKY]

[Comic Book Boy]

Cool thread! (Just found it):batman:

[harley]

I'm trying to find a hard one (just to be sure to challenge Blueberry :)) .....but I can't.
Tell me people a hard one or an easy one?

[CLARKY]

[Antonello Blueberry]

I'm waiting...

[harley]

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v491/comicsfvr/batmanharleyprm.jpg

Thanks again for hosting

[CLARKY]

I-don't-know!:mad:.....one more time..:(

[Antonello Blueberry]

It looks a little like a Marshall Rogers thing, but i'm quite sure it's not his work.

[harley]

no.It's not Marshall Rogers.

[Riven]

I dunno, but something about this guy's design makes me think of Mike Allred, but I'm pretty sure it isn't him...

[harley]

No.This is not Mike Allred.
Welcome in the game by the way.:)

[harley]

he is not well known or not famous at all, should I say.
I just wanted to challenge our friend Blueberry :) he is almost unbeatable!:)

[Antonello Blueberry]

Ok, I give up. Give us a BIG hint ot the name of the artist.

[harley]

all right all right I give the name.I didn't intend to put a hard on just in order to put a hard one : the drawing is from Paul Renaud.(he has a site : http://www.theartofcomics.com/renaud/renaud.htm ).
I was just teasing you Blueberry.I didn't offend you, did I ?:(
I will post an easier one later.:)

No, it takes a lot more to offend me. You should have read what someone in the Costatine forums called me after I gave an early bad review of the movie.
Good find with this art. Monsieur Renaud is a fine artist.

[harley]

Did you really dislike Constantine?I found it good.(but I don't read the comic book, so maybe I'm wrong.
Anyway, back on topic, here is the easier one: :D

[Antonello Blueberry]

I know the guy wait wait.....he did the cover Superman/Flash I race.
Yes, and not only that. The name?

[CLARKY]

Kevin Nowlan! yes! :D:cool:

[Antonello Blueberry]

Ok, let's go on.

[Cobblepot]

It's a good Idea Clarky.
The reason that I'm not much online right now, is that I'm away from home mostly. I'm only at home during the weekends, and you know what that means living on your own.
I just got a month and a halve to go.

Viva La France!

[CLARKY]

:) :D

... and yes I know "what that means living on my own".
vive ... heu ...Nederlands?

[CLARKY]

OK we're going to follow Blueberry's idea.I'm just waiting for Harley's opinion.

[harley]

why not?
But if it is riddle and/or hard question, I have to tell you that I am a big loser!:hq:
But OK.

[harley]

It is nice to ask us before.:) I am touched.

[CLARKY]

it's OK:)
So OK let's begin the trivia.
One riddle per person, on batman (and batman world and companions, but no specific question on Spoiler or Nightwing), all mediums are permitted (not only comic book), pics are encouraged.
that's it!

[Antonello Blueberry]

Ok, I'll keep on posting Batman pinups.
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v340/Antoblueberry/BatmanPin11.jpg
Hint: BWHAHAHA

[harley]

a drawing about batman '89?

[Antonello Blueberry]

a drawing about batman '89?
Clearly inspired by. But this guy already drew a Batman similar to that of the movies, before 1989. His Batman was a black spot in a very colorful book.

[harley]

it looks like Mark bagley but I think the cape is not his style.......

[Antonello Blueberry]

Another Batman from the same artist:
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v340/Antoblueberry/BatPin12.jpg

[harley]

Km?

[CLARKY]

I would have say Adam Hugues, but with KM???

[CLARKY]

it looks like the guy who drew JL europe.
U know......aaarhh!!I always confond him with Adam Hughes....
:mad:

[Antonello Blueberry]

I CAN'T BELIEVE you don't know the name of this artist.

[CLARKY]

I know!of course!!!Dummy me!
Kevin Maguire!
always remind me of tobey maguire (the movie!)

[Antonello Blueberry]

I know!of course!!!Dummy me!
Kevin Maguire!
always remind me of tobey maguire (the movie!)
Of Course it's Kevin Maguire, now in all the comic-book shops in the JLA:Classified story arc of "I can't believe it's not the Justice League" and former artist on JLI back in 1986. So, have you got something to post?

[CLARKY]

yeah JLI not JLE!my mistake.Anyway!
No I don't have much to post.If the "rules" I've posted about the trivia are not good for you tell me, ... U can lead it buddy!No prob!
tell me.
one more thing : where did U get those wonderful pics?
(throughout the thread)

[Antonello Blueberry]

(throughout the thread)
The rules? You make the rules as you go. My idea was to post a picture, then trivia if it was too difficult to guess. But you are free to do whatever you want.
And the pics are everywhere on the net. I could also start scanning some of my books, or original art when I get my scanner back.
And there's a guy who has a wonderful Batman sketch gallery online, here:
http://alexander.m.free.fr/comicverse/PagesHTML/News/Expos/Batman/DiaporamaBatman.htm

[CLARKY]

Wow!
the gallery is ... wow.

[Cobblepot]

An Easy one.

[Carmine Falcone]

david mazzuchelli (spelling?)

[Cobblepot]

Even the spelling is right!

[CLARKY]

2 dutsch people at the same time!:up:
U've already posted mazzuchelli's art but he's a so cool penciller ...

Brian Bolland?

[Cobblepot]

Yes.

I guess it just screams Bolland, or not?

[Antonello Blueberry]

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v340/Antoblueberry/BatPin13.jpg

[Cobblepot]

Marshall Rogers

[Antonello Blueberry]

Right.

[CLARKY]

:eek: how do U do that?
I like Brian bolland a lot and I didn't recognize his style on the pic.Then a total unknown and BAM! U found it immediately.
I feel ashamed of my poor capacities

[Riven]

Although it isn't the most detailed pic, it's actually not that hard to spot it's Bolland. Most artists are instantly recognisable in the way they draw faces, eyes, mouthes. Hands are also a very good tell-tale sign.

The eyes on this batman are wide and triangular and seem a little bulgy, as if they're not entirly framed by his brow. The shape of the head is long and the bat-ears are neither very short nor long and bend a bit outwards, curling back inside like horns ever so slightly. That's CLASSIC Bolland. :)
