Before and After: #44

The DC preview of tomorrow's Booster Gold #44 is online at The Source. Once again, I find it interesting to compare the solicitation cover art with the finished work. (I previously compared the solicitation and final art for the cover of issue #42.)

Both images were drawn by Dan Jurgens and inked by Norm Rapmund. The difference between the two images -- for good or ill depending on your personal aesthetic -- is the work the colorists at Hi-Fi Designs.

On Commission: Please Don't Cancel Me

A couple of convention sketches of Booster Gold by Chris Batista and Norm Rapmund from Comic Con International 2010 have been posted by their new owner, David Setterlund, at Comic Art Fans.com (Batista here and Rapmund here). Rapmund's pencils are unsurprisingly strong and dark. And no matter how you feel about Batista's stylized art, if you are reading this you probably agree with his word balloon: "please don't cancel me."

Jim Pesl: Mystery Revealed!

Thanks to some investigative work by long-time Booster Gold fan and frequent Boosterrific.com contributor Shawn Baston, we now know who Jim Pesl is. In Shawn's own words:

Talked to Dan Jurgens today. I asked him about "Pesl" that shows up in the artwork. It turns out it's the name of an old college buddy of Norm Rapmund from Grand Rapids, and Norm likes to sneek it in from time to time.

So there we have it. Mystery solved. Thanks, Shawn (and Dan), for getting to the bottom of this.

UPDATE, March 2011: Check out the comment from Anonymous below with a little more clarification regarding Jim Pesl. (Sure, it's not exactly from a verified source, but what would someone going by the tag "Anonymous" have to hide?)
