Oeming, Michael Avon: Deke

Michael Avon Oeming is da man! This guy does it all. He writes, pencils, inks...

Although probably best known for Powers, the award winning series that he does with Brian Michael Bendis, Oeming has also done some cool work with Kelsey [Bastard Samurai] Shannon, Neil [Parliment of Justice] Vokes, and Mark [Hammer of the Gods] Wheatley. Oeming always has a couple of projects going... talk about energy.

I absolutely love Michael's take on Sly as Deke DaSilva. This piece has so much attitude. Michael told me when I asked for a Stallone piece that he doesn't do likenesses well. I said that I wanted his take on Sly if he was drawing a comic that Stallone was in. Michael then agreed and I absolutely love the result.

It was the first piece that I was able to get at Heroes Con in 2004 and if it had been the only one I would have went home happy!
