Art Appreciation Moment of the Day: Dante

Review: Dr. Horrible

From the moment Dr. Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog hit the intardwebz, fans of musical comedies, with a superhero hook have been in seventh heaven. While there have been a couple of attempts to tell a Dr. Horrible origin story, the official take on the villain’s past can only be found in the pages of Dr. Horrible #1 from Dark Horse Comics.

Review: Nola #1

Scorned and left for dead by the man she thought she loved, Nola Thomas returns to the flooded city of New Orleans a different woman than she was prior to the onslaught of Hurricane Katrina. What sequence of events could change a beautiful woman looking for love to a scarred woman looking for revenge?

Art Appreciation Moment of the Day: Dante

By: Stephen Schleicher | June 3rd, 2009

Those of you who have been following the Major Spoilers Podcast for any length of time have seen us switch to original art as part of the logo for each new episode. Those fantastic little drawings come from Dante, who whips these up during our recording session. During the most recent Major Spoilers Podcast, the Major Spoilers Crew discussed comics in the classroom. Dante took that theme and ran with it, so as a big thanks to Dante for taking the time to draw these pieces of original art, we’re featuring him in this installment of the Art Appreciation Moment of the Day.

Take the jump to see the entire gallery!

I have over 100 drawings that Dante has created for Major Spoilers. Would the Major Spoilers Legion be interested in a collected paperback featuring this original art (including many never before seen images) along with Dante’s thoughts and comments on each image?

Let me know your interest level, and we can add it to the Major Spoilers Store.

For some reason Rodrigo refuses to be in the same room as Dante, which means Dante sits in the Major Spoilers Nerd Room of Doom, monitoring the show in a really big easy chair.

“To Kill a Mocking Bird” drawing should be turned into an ongoing series. His biggest enemy will be the Cat from We3.
