The Tampa Bay Comic Book Convention will feature Arthur Suydam, artist on "Batman", "Conan" and most notoriously, "Marvel Zombies" comic book titles.
From his website: "Arthur Suydam burst onto the scene in the seven-ties. Recently honored with the coveted Spectrum Award for Excellence in Illustration, Suydam’s immense body of written and illustrative work comprises an aesthetic that is as uniquely distinguishable as it is organic and poetic. Recent releases include Bedtime Stories for the Incarcerated; Arthur Suydam: The Art of the Barbarian; Skin Deep; Visions; Mudwogs, and The Adventures of Cholly and Flytrap—published worldwide and currently in pre-production for film."
Suydam's popularity skyrocketed with the series of covers for "Marvel Zombies" which were all homages to famous Marvel comic covers in the past. Some other fan favories are:
- Wolverine: Origins #10 (Variant cover)
- Deadpool: Merc with a Mouth
- Batman vs Predator
- Shrapnel
- Fantastic Four # 554 (Variant cover)
- Vampirella
The convention is Sunday, February 20th from 10am to 4pm. For more information see the convention's website: http://www.tampabaycomiccon.com/
