Name a character, and their best artist

Name any comic character, then say who you think was the artist that drew them best. Either just pencilled, or fully illustrated. Add a picture, if you feel like.

I'll start.

Shazam/Captain Marvel - Alex Ross

any DC character- Micheal Turner....

Batman- Jim Lee

Wolverine - John Byrne

Sasquatch-Clayton Henry

Punisher - Mike Zeck

Namor: Alex Ross

Avengers - Perez

Any character - Alex Ross

DD - Frank Miller (who else ?)

Wolverine - Byrne

Batman (young version) - David Mazzucchelli

Thanos - George Pérez

Just to name a few...

The Thing - Andy Kubert

Kyle Rayner - Luke Ross
Superman - Phil Jimenez
The Flash - Howard Porter
Nightwing - Jim Lee
Starfire - Michael Turner
Thor - Andrea Devito

Lots of great artists, but I'd have to say Ross is my favorite.

So who would you say Ross draws better than anyone?

I would say Superman.

The Silver Surfer - George Perez

Silver Surfer: Jack Kirby...

...despite his lousy knowledge of anatomy. There was an inherent Power to his figures that (IMO) even Ross doesnt capture, for all the "life-likeness" of his works.
