from New Avengers (2005 1st Series) 47
2009 Marvel
Much of Brian Michael Bendis' revolutionary run on Avengers centered around Luke Cage, an 'everyman' type of hero in comparison to many of the other heroes who quickly became the heart of the team and the fan favorite. Here, Tan and Banning perfectly capture the shock and heightened emotion that readers would feel along with Luke when learning that his newborn daughter had been kidnapped by Skrull posing as Jarvis during Secret Invasion. It's framed wonderfully with massive devastation visible in the background that still doesn't seem to compare to the pain on Luke's face, powerfully depicted through Banning's heavy inks. Pencil and ink on Marvel Comics art board. 11" x 17 1/2".
