Hulk vs Superman by Ryan Ottley

It is the age old question that DC Comics and Marvel Comics fans toss at each other like grenades... who would win in a fight, Hulk or Superman? Most people are quick to offer an answer, but if you really delve into both super heroes invulnerability powers and epic strength it becomes a much harder question to ponder. A few years back I posted a crazy CGI fan film that put the Green Monster vs the Kryptonian Madman, and it points out just how hard it is for either dude to win. But it is fun to see others opinions on the situation, and who better to weigh in on this than one of CCD's favorite comic artist, Invincible's Ryan Ottley. Ottley is a fantastic artist, and one of his latest posts to his Deviant Art page (click here to check his Deviant page, it is pretty amazing) tackles the subject in a way that I certainly didn't expect. Do you think Ottley picked Hulk, or Supes? Here is a hint: It plays out the way I WOULD HOPE IT WOULD.... Check after the jump to find out for yourself.

 

Usagi Yo Jimbo vs Invincible by Ryan Ottley

For those of you who don't know who Ryan Ottley is, he is the kind of guy working in the comic industry that I adore. The reason is because he is a true self made man... dude hated his regualr job, so he began creating his own personal web comics to gain exposure. Instead of submitting samples to the comic companies and hoping they would change his life with a job offer, he published his own stuff and it was seen by the right person... Robert Kirkman, the creator of The Walking Dead, and he loved it! So he offered Ottley a job penciling Invincible... and the rest is pretty much history. Ottley kills on Invincible, and also has drawn variant covers for The Walking Dead and Haunt, which was a collabo between Kirkman and Todd McFarlane. The guy is a great artist, and I really dig his whole path to success. Joe Fletch sent me a cool ass pic he had posted over on his Deviant Art page featuring one of my favorite lesser known characters, Stan Sakai's Usagi Yo Jimbo taking on Invincible himself. The piece is beautiful, but also humorous... it plays up to Yo Jimbo's fearlessness but also the impracticality of attacking Invincible with a sword. Great piece. You can see much more of Ottley's work over at his Tumblr, Deviant Art page, and Blog... and check out the awesome Man vs Rabbit piece after the jump...
