Rafael Albuquerque (Twitter) first appeared on my radar with his stellar work on DC's Blue Beetle series. He's also done creator owned work in the form of Crimeland
, The Savage Brothers
, and various other projects. Currently, he's doing cover work for Marvel, most notably Incredible Hercules (as seen above), and interiors on DC's Superman/Batman. In non-comic work, he's even done some storyboarding for the Angels & Demons movie.
I chose to spotlight Albuquerque's Thorcules cover image because it was the first promotional image we'd seen for that storyline and, well, it's Hercules dressed like Thor - what's not to love? Hit the jump for some more samples of Albuquerque's comic work.

I really liked his Incredible Hercules covers! Looking at the other examples you posted he has a nice style for interior work, although his super girl from the image you posted looks odd to me: like her head is a little too much to her left and not aligned with the rest of her body
