That Wonder Woman really has a JB vibe.

If I could conjure anything to defeat Wonder Woman I don't think I'd go with a machine gun...if I was really trying.

Mike Grell. I think his work is outstanding, simply outstanding.

Norm Breyfogle and Steve Rude come to mind.

I agree with all of these, but would like to add Ron Garney. He flirted with superstar status back with Captain America. Now I think he's thought of as more of a journeyman. Not that being a journeyman is a bad thing. His four part Mystique storyline in WOLVERINE was beautiful work.

José Luis Garcia-Lopez - The issues of DC Comics Presents he drew are among some of the best comics I've ever seen. That Superman/Deadman team-up absolutely blew me away!
Norm Breyfogle - His Batman work in the '90s remains a high point on the character for me, and I'm enjoying what he's doing on the digital-first Batman Beyond series.
Paul Pelletier - Loved his Green Lantern run, and I'm eager to see his take on Aquaman.
Lee Weeks - Daredevil, Batman: The Gauntlet, Tarzan Vs. Predator—he work is always top-notch.
Steve Rude - His work on the Kirby characters in Legends of the DC Universe is awesome.
Steve Lightle - So diggin' his current Legion of Super-Heroes covers.

I thought Steve Rude was already considered somewhat a superstar in comics.

*** Agreed. When I first began to explore DC after only reading Marvel for my first few years as a comics fan, Breyfogle was to Batman, for me, what JB was to Superman. He was drawing Batman at the height of the late 80s Batman movie craze and I suspect he's THE Batman artist for many of us who grew "met" the character at that time.

JR JR, he started to get more attention after Kick Ass, but still he doesn't get the love many who aren't even close to being on his level do.

Matt,
I've always thought Steve Rude was appreciated at a certain level, but I've always seen him on the fringe of popularity. Just a thought, though.

Rude hasn't been relevant in major publisher comics in quite some time. He has demons to contend with, I guess, which has alienated him from the mainstream. At the same time, the corporate comics have alienated ALL of their aging pros. Rude has just never been demonstrably willing to concede to the wishes of others, from all indications.
I doubt many working within the current superhero books are much aware of Rude. And Rude hasn't any real "run" to call his own, outside of his creator-owned work.
He could be, or should have been, Darwyn Cooke before Darwyn Cooke.

When I was really into comics, Rude was a major name, at least to my recollection. Although, things were a little different back then. He could have just been a major name to me, since I really didn't converse with other comic fans.
