to thank i complained about partchalos art this guy is way below even him ugh
omg omg omg omg why couldnt they have had stephen sejic do all of artifacts WHY while i loved him on the angelus mini series but
i would have traded him doing that and taking a haitus off of witchblade if it ment he could have done this series he is one of the best artist working in comics now digital art or otherwise
and he did the past major top cow events (first born, broken trinity, war of the witchblades) and this is the biggest yet AND HE SHOULD HAVE BEEN DRAWING IT
his upcoming work on witchblade better be worth it (probley will be the upcoming cover art looks glorious )

[Movieartman]

ok that page spread with tom judge looks good but the rest is just ok

[Movieartman]

(last thing im gonna say i swear) and he better make Gloria/the ember stone weilder freaking sexy and badass smoking hot

[King Nonentity]

Very excited for this. Sir Haun, that stuff looks friggin sweet! Can't wait to see it all for myself.

A be-heading and a steamy scene huh? That better not happen...I mean...come on! spoiler!

Sejic needs to concentrate on Witchblade, nothing else. Okay, maybe Ravine. Let Witchblade be the best, most consistant book on the shelves.

You should learn some manners, Movieartman.

And some punctuation.

Haun's art looks epic so far. I can't wait to see these pages is color.

wow are you the real ron marz?
your witchblade stuff is amazing

i really ment no disrepect (and i mean it im not just saying it due to u being the one to call me out on it) just disapointed
i really wanted them to pull the best artist for this series sense its the being acumulation of all thats been going on in top cow sense at least broken trinity
and this very might be the last time we see gloria/the ember stone (ive grown fond of her character) for a while
and so i wanted her to go out with a big time gloriously drawn battle
along the lines of the stuff in broken trinity
again sorry and i deleted those comments

I like his art a lot, the scenes/panels feel complete, unlike a lot of current artists. I think he's got the ability to draw everything which is big with me. But it's the internet so I know that to some people everything is the worst they've ever seen or the best.

[TheDarkness]

I'm very happy about Haun's take on the Darkness, although I didn't see how he draws him. But this answer from a past interview on CBR is very exciting:

As an artist, there must be a lot of appeal to the Darkness because of the nature of his powers. Between the tendrils and minions, there seems to be so much you can do with it.

I think that's it. Being able to visualize the variety of things you can do with the character is awesome. I love the idea that he's effectively on one level wearing armor, but it's completely bio-organic. It's made out of the Darkness, so you can mess with a lot of things. It can bulk up. It can slim down. If he needs wings, it can have wings. It's a great, malleable, visual character. One of the things I've been trying to work on with my art is becoming a stronger illustrator. I've taken and done a lot of work where I needed to get it done fast and I needed to get it done based on a deadline. The way that we're setting this up, I've got the time to really stretch myself visually, and this is the perfect character to do it on.

I mean... organic armor... bulk up... everything I'd like about Jackie. A Silvestri-Broussard style afterall!

The preview of the pencils look hot! Can't wait for Haun's issues.
