Page from a Batman story penciled by Jim Lee. I inked this digitally in Photoshop for fun and practice. I'm not sure what title or issue this is. Let me know in the comics if you know. Thanks.

Sad to hear about the passing of Jackson "Butch" Guice. RIP. He was one of the greats, and a personal favorite of mine. Here is a sample I did over pencils from Butch. This was from a CrossGen comic called Ruse.

Image of Starfire from the Teen Titans penciled and inked by me (colors too) flying over and around Titan's Tower. I tried to emulate the way the great George Perez designed the character.
