Crisis on Infinite Arts - Tradd Moore's Luther Strode

To kick off the first Crisis on Infinite Arts that we’ve done in a long time, I wanted to take a look at one of my favorite artists, TRADD MOORE. This past week he released some new art for his upcoming The Legacy of Luther Strode, and I could not be more excited. He is without a doubt one of my favorite artists in the industry. Hit the jump for more!

His first big splash in comics was with The Strange Talent of Luther Strode, written by Justin Jordan with art by Tradd and colors by Felipe Sobreiro. From that point on, he won his way into the hearts of many with his hyper-violent art style. From that point on he's done numerous variant covers for Marvel with Secret Avengers, Deadpool, and others. He recently drew the first five issues for Marvel’s All New Ghost Rider, and now he’s ready to get back to work on more Luther Strode. You can find his old blog here, his new blog here, DeviantArt here, and follow him on Twitter here. He does not disappoint.

It’s not the insane amount of violence that makes me adore his art (though there’s something fascinating about how he draws an exploding head). It’s the energy that burst from the page that makes me gush.  His use of lines infuses an insane amount of kinetic energy and detail. All of his action scenes are fast and thrilling, and I can't think of anyone I’d rather have on a steady monthly book. Check out some of his work below and be sure to visit his sites.

The new design for Legacy has Luther looking bigger than ever.

Is Petra the anti-Samson? The less hair she has, the more bad ass she gets?

An awesome sketch of Samurai Jack.

When Tradd can't draw blood, he draws rain!

I could easily see him drawing a Wolverine story. 

He definitely nails the goofiness of Deadpool.

His new Ghost Rider design has insane line work with those flames.
