Trekker's Ron Randall Illustrates A One-Of-A-Kind Wonder Woman Cover

Published Wed, 22 Jun 2022 12:32:12 -0500

Ron Randall recently lit up Kickstarter with a dynamite Trekker campaign, but this veteran comics creator has been celebrated as both an artist and writer for decades. Both a writer and an artist, Ron Randall is known for his beautifully drawn female characters that seem to illustrate Randall's penchant for character-driven storytelling, even in static images. If you'd like to see how Ron Randall can capture characterization in a single image, there is currently a Wonder Woman 75th Anniversary Special #1 sketch cover on Heritage Auctions today. This sketch cover is a perfect example of how the creator behind the epic sci-fi drama Trekker uses artwork to key into ephemeral aspects of character through unique and evocative expressions in his drawings' faces and even posture. Let's check this listing out.
