The celebrated cover artist of 100 Bullets, PunisherMAX, Detective Comics and many, many more great series, Dave Johnson knows what he’s talking about when it comes to creating great comic book cover illustrations. Followers of Johnson’s Twitter feed have been treated recently to the artist’s variously provocative and fascinating insights into what he thinks makes or breaks a fine piece of cover art, showcasing with visual aids some “wins” and “fails” of the week’s new comics. Response has been such that Johnson’s actually created a new blog where he intends to go more in-depth, and in some cases has already edited some covers to demonstrate his points.
