One of the all-time greats…
The late, great Darwyn Cooke was born 61 years ago, on Nov. 16, 1962. He was a master, simple as that.
For this year’s birthday tribute, we bring you 13 GORGEOUS ILLUSTRATIONS, from the Heritage Auctions archives.
If only I owned even one of these pieces. But at least we can look, right?
Fabulous.

Years ago, there was a comic book shop in my town. I can’t remember its name, but its motto was ‘preserving a sense of wonder’ and what I get from Darwyn Cooke’s artwork is exactly that: a sense of wonder, and nostalgia, of course. A great collection here.

My first exposure to his work was on “Catwoman”. I was taken with his style, which I thought was reminiscent of Milton Caniff. It’s such a shame that we lost him far too soon, but what glorious art he left for us to enjoy!
