I realize this isn’t a comic cover, but it isn’t worthy of a whole new thread for card art.
This is art from the new Avengers Ultra card set that just released. As I’ve mentioned several times, I love Gist’s work & this is great.
I don’t buy cards typically but may have to try to get a few packs.

Anyone know if Gist’s art is digital art or by hand?
He has done at least some covers by hand, but not sure if all his covers are rendered that way.
@Bill Apologies if there are exceptions but I’m fairly certain everything he does is by hand-oil paintings. He has and continues to teach varied painting classes

Now I REALLY like him! (not a fan of digital art).
I’ve personally witnessed 2 (normally) digital artists try to draw by hand. It was a wreck of a commission to say the least.

Gist at NYCC 2022.
That’s my werewolf by night #4 he signed for me.
I didn’t specifically ask him, but I did not get the impression he relies on digital paints…
Very nice guy, btw. Very personable.
I will definitely visit his table in future cons.

He does do digital if you follow him on IG but he’s classically trained. He did a recent hulk vs wolverine incentive in digital. Regardless he’s a painter and teaches at arts academy on the west coast. Love his work, big fan.

Great character design and a gorgeous first app/cover for this character. It’s so good it almost allows me to forgive DC for blatantly copying Moonknight here. I mean, really? The best name you could come up with is Marilyn Moonlight?!?
My shop completely sold out of this issue almost immediately. I have no idea if they only had a couple copies or what, but take that for what you will.

They have such a rich history of copying one another. Definitely a great cover!

Copying each other? How dare you! Swamp Thing and Man Thing are nothing alike!
Moon Knight is a copy of Batman so…
That’s fighting words. Take it back!
I can’t.
Moon Knight = Brawler side of Batman
Jake Lockley = Matches Malone undercover identity Batman uses to gain info in the criminal underworld.
Steven Grant = Bruce Wayne
Mr. Knight = Detective aspect of Batman.
But, at least there are some fundamental differences between Batman and MK. This new character shares a VERY similar outfit and their names are Moonknight and Moonlight. I mean, come on DC!
Only seen this now, annoyed as I could have pre-ordered this for a fraction of the price it’s selling for now.
Going to go sell some junk and buy a copy of this, I’m not usually a fan of negative space covers but this is just really cool couod be the foil helping it.

Is that a negative space mirror flip homage to Rob Liefeld’s Heroes Reborn Cap? Stick out that chest and hold the shield back…that’s the first thing I thought of when I saw it.
sweet book. what is it?
