Eaglesham’s Fantastic Four Pencils

Most know I am digging the latest issues of Fantastic Four, and most, even myself, mention it as Hickman’s run. But the artist, Dale Eaglesham, should not be forgotten. He is doing a stellar job on the sequentials every issue that he touches and this tease, courtesy of CBR, shows just that.

This is stunning artwork. I love a good pencil job and this is near perfection. The Inhumans are very cool characters but they’ve never looked this cool. Eaglesham sets the scene here with an establishing shot that doesn’t feel like a wasted panel.

In the last issue published, there was a soundless sequence and instead of skimming through it I took even longer than if there had been words because I needed to take in so much information. Eaglesham really goes for the detail and makes sure there’s plenty to give us, if we’ll take the time to notice it.

This is good art, and I love that it’s paired with good writing. It’s making a great comic.
