Picture of Joe's Contribution to Batman/Superman #26

click image to enlarge

Hey guys and gals, here is a photograph of the page Joe drew for Batman/Superman #26. The issue just came out today so head out to your local shop to pick it up since it features pages from dozens of other artists that all came together to create this special tribute issue for Sam Loeb, Jeph Loeb's son.

I apologize for the quality of the image, it was taken with a digital camera because I don't have access to a scanner at the moment but I figured I'd put it up anyway since I know a lot of you love seeing new Mad! art like I do.

Next up for Joe will be his Ultimates vol. 3 run which should begin later this year. Ultimates vol. 2 is wrapping up at the end of June so we should be hearing more information and hopefully seeing more imagery in the coming months. Enjoy the image!

Hey mike,

It's Nate from Joemadfan.com, was that the only page? I thought I read they were doing 3 pages each. I wasn't going to scan it so people would actually buy it(still might), cause they should, but maybe I will now if it's only one page. Sucks too I have to wait until tomorrow here because of the holiday. That page looks awesome..he made Robin look cool, that's skill right there.

You still working on a site? how is it coming?

Later!

It looks a lot simpler than other stuff he's done. I dunno, rushed or something as does a lot of the stuff he's drawn since leaving comics. It's almost like he's out of practice because he's not drawing as much as he used to. I'm sure he'll be on top of his game for Ultimates though. :0) Can hardly wait!

Hey Nate, yeah it was only the page. Only a couple artists had more than one page contributed. His Robin does look awesome eh?, I think Joe's approach for this page fits better than if he went super detailed in it like his concept art. As for the site I haven't done very much, I've been pretty busy working and just enjoying the summer. I still have the old layout I never released but I kind of want to do something different. So I don't know what I'm gonna do just yet. Later man.

Art Advice 2.0 from Joe Madureira

Joe Madureira has continued voicing his art advice with details on what gear he uses, his influences, and skills needed for working in the game or comic industry. Art Advice 2.0 Now for the specific art questions I do get very often:   1-I use a technical pencil with HB lead 99% of the time. Staedler, Koo-in-oor, Prismacolor Turquoise, it’s all good. Take your pick. I use them all. Sometimes I work on paper that’s a little different ( smoother or more coarse ) and I may move up or down to an H or a B lead if needed. But I find H and 2H digs into the pap er and is too hard to erase ( Which sadly I do a lot of ) and B is too soft ( smudges like a mofo.) B is fantastic for going back over lines, darkening , and adding weight to your lines. Basically, ‘inking’ with a pencil. **Just keep a sheet of scrap paper under your hand or you will smudge the shit out of your drawing!!!** HB suits my needs 99% of the time. Really no need to switch it out, just adjust your pressure. Harder or lig

50th Anniversary of the X-Men

Marvel is releasing a poster to commemorate the 50th Anniversary of the X-Men. Joe Madureira's art is featured at the bottom. It's repurposed artwork but it's a cool poster none the less.

NYCC Battle Chasers Sketches

Joe Madureira has finished his two new Battle Chasers sketches for the New York Comic Con. They'll be 11x17 prints available in Artists Alley table L2. Signing times are 10:30am-12:00pm and 3:00pm-4:30pm Friday-Sunday during the New York Comic Con. Joe also answered a few questions about the prints. 1) Yes, Monika's boobs have gotten a little smaller (!) 2) Poor Garrison was going to be featured in his own print, but I didn't have time, and he ruined the composition of the team shot. So--I promise I'll do one of him for the next show. I didn't forget him! 3) I will look into some sort of online store where you can buy stuff without going to a convention. 4) These two particular prints are grayscale and resemble penciled line art on an 11x17 bristol board. Ie. It looks like pencils. I will have 3 other full color prints available that some of you may have seen at SDCC. 5) Yes, I do hope to get back to Battle Chasers someday. I do still love these characters, whi
