‘Hellboy’ Logo Designer Kevin Nowlan Draws ‘Buster Oakley Gets His Wish’ [Preview]
A favorite amongst comics professionals for his superlative technique and striking style, Kevin Nowlan is an artist whose work is always a pleasure to see. Among his career highlights include the Jack B. Quick portions of Alan Moore's Tomorrow Stories, inking Joe Quesada to superstardom in 1992's Batman: The Sword of Azrael, and designing the logo for Mike Mignola's Hellboy, arguably the most recognizable and excellent logo in creator-owned comics history.
Nowlan's Hellboy logo debuted sometime in the early 1990s, but in all that time he's rarely drawn Hellboy himself. Thankfully, on sale now is a brand new Hellboy one-shot, "Buster Oakley Gets His Wish," drawn and colored by Kevin Nowlan himself from a script by Mike Mignola. You can check out a beautiful preview below. It's about a guy who really loves cows.
