Sketch Card Week: Power Girl by Danny Silva

It's Day 2 of Sketch Card Week, and today's card comes from a set that is going to be pretty common this week, Cryptozoic's DC Comics: The Women of Legend. I am struggling to get Sketch Card Week off the ground. I have the cards scanned, but getting the posts written has become a challenge. I spent the 4th of July rafting on the Payette River with my family, and I am absolutely exhausted. It was a fun time, but it wore me out.

This sketch card features the character Power Girl by artist Danny Silva. The eyes on this Power Girl are pretty creepy, but I think it's a really neat piece of art. He did a few other characters for this set in this style as well as a few others with a more traditional look. I think I prefer these ones, as they stand out a bit more from the crowd. I am actually a little surprised that DC let these through the approval process. The comic companies seem to be pretty strict about how their characters are drawn on sketch cards, although I think Marvel / Disney are more strict than DC when it comes to depicting characters exactly how they appear currently in comics. Silva is pretty active across his social media accounts, which are all linked to from his website.

That's about all for this post. I need to get some sleep so that I can recover from today's festivities. I am glad that I was able to get this card for my collection, and I hope to add more work by Danny Silva to my collection in the future.
