I know not everyone liked his style, but I always loved Mark Bagley's artwork.

Amazing Spidey, Thunderbolts, even New Warriors back in the day

My faves include John Byrne (especially his earlier stuff), Alan Davis, Carlos Pacheco, Bill Willingham, and Salvador Larroca.

I love so many of them. Bryne and Davis had some solid years of work.  I like Art Adams from those days. I've sort of forgotten about Salvador Larroca. He was good.

I think that Mike Zeck the guy who did the original Secret Wars and many other things may be one of the most overlooked artists from the 80s.

Jim Lee and Todd McFarlane. Mark Bagley may be the most prolific good comic artist ever. When lots of artists couldn't even meet their deadlines he was drawing 2 monthly comics! Well.

Greg Capullo, Tony Daniel, and Darrick Robertson.

I love Scottie Young's baby covers. Mike Deodato and Clayton Crain. Pepe Larez (his Deadpool X-Force mini series is probably my favorite art ever.) It's as cool as I thought X-Force and Liefeld was when I was a kid.

I still like Quesada's stuff too. The Kuebert brothers. Especially the one who drew wolverine forever.

Pepe Larraz, Dan Mora, Tula Lotay, Carlos Gomez (his X-Terminators run with Leah Williams would have sent me flying to the shelves as a preteen boy! It did now!), and Zoe Thorogood are all top for me right now.

I really like the Max Fiumara on the Sacrificers, Mattia De Iulis on the Cull, Maria Llovet. I haven't read the Lovesick yet, but everything I've seen from Luana Vecchio is insane. Martin Morazzo and Chris O' Halloran on Ice Cream Man are unbeatable.

I haven't seen them on a ton of interiors, but Jen Bartel and Kevin Wada have done great cover work, especially for She-Hulk. And I can't mention cover artists and skip over Dave McKean.

For manga, I love Q Hayashida (Dai Dark, Dorohedoro), Taiyo Matsumoto (No. 5), and Naoki Urosawa (Pluto, 20th Century Boys).

Finally, my all time faves are Bill Sinkiewicz, Chris Bachalo, and (maybe somewhat of a surprise given the inclinations of the others named) but Alex Ross is at the absolute top of the heap. His Superman makes you believe a man can fly!

Alex Ross is indeed amazing!

Also, one I forgot to mention earlier is Fiona Staples (Saga).
