The 10 greatest comic book artists of all time
From action blockbusters to The Lego Movie, the influence of comic artists on popular culture has never been greater. We take a look back at the greatest.
Putting pencil to paper is how it all starts. Since that fateful day in 1938 when Superman bounded into life in the first issue of Action Comics, artists and illustrators have found themselves pre-occupied with the burning desire to create superheroes.
Designing these characters, the worlds they protect and how they can live in synergy with words on a page is an art in itself - and comic book artists have a huge and worldwide following. These gods amongst geeks range from British trailblazer Dave Gibbons to American legend Jack Kirby. Comics are often derided as a 'low' art form, but they boast a massive influence on pop culture, with this summer's three biggest blockbusters all based on panels in print.
Here, we choose a collection of comic book artists who've excelled in painting pictures on our mindscape...
Will Eisner
Will Eisner was born in Brooklyn in 1917 and sadly passed away on 3 January 2005. He's widely renowned as one of the comic world's most important and beloved contributors, and often hailed 'The Father of the Graphic Novel'. The term 'graphic novel' was coined in the '60s, but only used as a marketing category for the first time for Eisner's A Contract with God in 1978. His comic design career started out as a cartoonist for the New York American Newspaper. Eisner was then snapped up by Wow, What A Magazine! in 1935, where he wrote and drew comic strips. His most famous work, however, is The Spirit which was first published in 1940 and went on to become a live action movie in 2008.
(Will Eisner: hailed the 'Father of the Graphic Novel')
Yet it is his work To The Heart Of The Storm, an autobiographical account of American life in the '30s and '40s, which best displays his prowess. The storm in the title is Word War Two, and Eisner is portrayed travelling as a drafted soldier at the beginning and end of the book. The train windows he gazes through frame his memories of childhood and adolescence and the history of his struggling Jewish immigrant family.
Did you know?
- Will Eisner also taught cartooning at the School of Visual Arts in New York. Many of today's top designers were actually students of his. - The Eisner Awards were established in 1988 and are presented each year at Comic-Con in San Diego. - New, authorised adventures of Eisner creations John Law and Nubbin have been produced by award-winning Australian writer/artist Gary Chaloner.

The Devil's Daughter
The Devil's Daughter, is a familiar motif in Satan-sploitation. It can mean anything from a generic bad-girl, as with the 1939 movie above to the nickname of a B-17 Bomber as seen below or the concept for Marvel Comic's demon/human hybrid Satanna.
The 95th Bomb Group's B17, built in 1942. "The Devil's Daughter" Aircraft 42-3153 Squadron 336 A
Satana
(Maroto / Satana)
These beautiful production sketches of Satana (sister of Daimon Hellstrom a.k.a. The Son of Satan) are by the celebrated Spanish artist Esteban Maroto from Vampire Tales #2 oct 1973 (you really can't do better than hiring a kid who was raised catholic if you want some really obsessive Satanic fantasy art)
(Angelique Trouvere as MARVEL COMICS’ Satana)
Before I sign off here's another variation on the theme the wonderfully named "Satanina Dayabolika" from the Phillipino Kampeon Komiks "Darna Versus Sataninia Dayabolika" by Mars Ravelo & Romy Elsie Santos from 1977.
Of course, Daughter is not the Devil's only female relative. Witness ye, by way of example, Devilina the Sister of Satan.
