Hot Auction: Middleton Cover Art Original
Three things to love about this JLA Classified cover: Bondage, superheroes, and Joshua Middleton.
The original is currently for auction. Anyone who is a fan of Middleton’s art, enjoys rare comic art or likes seeing Wonder Woman tied up should probably jump on this ASAP.
Joshua Middleton is best known - in my book - for this started-and-stopped comic Sky Between Branches. The publisher, ComX Comics is either defunct or totally forgot to update their domain registration. Oops. It’s a gorgeous one shot which delicately skims the surface of what promised to be a really wonderful story. Unfortunately due to budget constraints, Middleton was not able to continue with Sky Between Branches.
Yet his career hasn’t suffered for this. He has now done serious work for big names in comics like X-Men and now JLA. His fluid style and lush, often muted palette invite closer inspection than some of the hard, fast art seen in traditional and even modern comics. I really can’t find enough good things to say about Middleton’s work. Check it out for yourself, he’s got lots of really good pieces up for Sky Between Branches, as well as lots of finished and sketch work for some of his recent comic work.
