From the first WildStorm crossover event. Fabulous edge to edge drawing from Windsor-Smith and Floyd. Pen and ink. Art is in excellent condition.
Artists Information
Smith rose to prominence thanks to his incredibly detailed and beautiful work on Marvels' Conan the Barbarian, which employed an approach that had never been seen in comics before. The artist worked on several titles at Marvel in the Silver Age before launching his own pin-up publishing house Gorblimey Press, which he used to release impressive lithos to his fan base. Working through the decades, Smith became more and more disillusioned about the comic industry and its unfair treatment of artists, so he slowly started to withdraw from the business. Occasionally popping up with the odd series of graphic novel. Smith is commonly recognized as one of the great artists in the history of comics. He once created a fictional comic book for Oliver Stone's movie "The Hand" which was based on Conan, and Michael Caine played the lead, a character that was a comic book artist that bore a striking resemblance to Smith.
John Floyd is a professional illustrator and comic book artist. He began his career in 1991 working for Continuity Comics on the title Armor. He later began working for DC Comics in 1993 on the title Green Lantern: Mosaic. Later he worked in a few issues of Batman and Detective Comics before moving to Batman: Gotham Knights.
