Powerful Stretch Goals!

Bart Sears has been drawing comics professionally for 30 years, working for DC, Marvel, Valiant, CrossGen, Image, Dark Horse and a number of other publishers. His powerful, bold art style has graced titles including "X-O Manowar" and "Turok" for Valiant, and "Justice League Europe" and "Batman" for DC. He's also known for his many Wizard Magazine covers, and especially for his Brutes and Babes art tutorials that appeared in the magazine, inspiring a generation of artists.

All of the art has been culled from Bart's files, selected personally by him.
