As I scanned some tweet RSS feeds I came across this Darkhawk “warm up piece” by artist John Cottrell. There’s a bit of Runaways, a bit of League of Losers and a bit of DH 2.0 or War of Kings in this design.

It still remains very street-level is feel though and not so cosmic–which I’m a fan of. I also love the idea of the wings being permanently active which has been the standard design especially since War of Kings.

This is a great piece by Joe and now I can sleep soundly knowing there is an artist out there willing to warm up with Darkhawk sketches!
