Any surprise that panel of the week is from Cliff Chiang’s Wonder Woman #1?  No, no there is not!

Look at this page!!!

Gods sometimes comics are so awesome:

Oops.  First ever Cover of the Week F up.  I read Magus #3 digitally this week, and as such wasn’t looking at the cover as a contender when I made my decision…but that’s a mistake, because though I really like the Zatanna #10 cover I prefer Magus #3.

So here I am, rectifying the error.  I’ll give Zatanna #10 a strong honorable mention as it’s still a nice cover, but my vote has to go with Fiona Staples gorgeous Magus #3 cover.  A great perspective choice really gives this image powerful movement. That, combined with wonderful composition and color choices, not to mention, it’s got a fucking dragon, makes this a home run as far as I’m concerned.

I like everything about this Stephane Roux cover for Zatanna #10.  The posing and expression is perfect, the empty space is fitting, and the slight wooden texture to Zatanna is just dead on, subtle enough, but not too subtle.  Plus, there’s CLIFF CHIANG art inside when you open it.  NOTHING CAN BE BETTER!  :)

Still catching up…my favorite panel(s) from 12/22/10…

Panel #1. A completely ordinary panel from Zatanna #8 by Cliff Chiang.  And it is the very “ordinariness” of it that makes it spectacular.  If only more comics could be like this!  Chiang’s attention to detail in the way Zatanna is rendered from her hairstyle down to her clothing choices (which also actually look like clothing – with real folds and everything!).  I wish this wasn’t extraordinary…but it SO is.  Also, for anyone out there listening…I would buy almost any book that Chiang was the regular pencilier on…bonus points if it has a female lead as he is EXTRA good at that.  Wonderful!

Panel #2.  Do I really need to explain why this panel from Yanick Paquette’s Batman Inc. #2 is totally awesome?  No, I probably don’t.  AWESOME.

As if I needed further proof that Cliff Chiang IS the perfect Birds of Prey artist, I came across this awesome Chiang Black Canary drawing.  Oh to live in a world where Chiang draws BoP…so delicious…
