Massimo Carnevale is an Italian based comic book artist/illustrator who caught my eye with some of his work on Vertigo's Northlanders. He is commonly referred to as 'Il Maestro' (the master) for his incredible compositions and style, which is a beautiful mishmash of painterly illustration mixed with graphical elements. This combination works beautifully in the work we collected, which covers some of the comic book/graphic novel covers he's worked on over the last few years.
Using an approach which mixes his distinct style with elements like selective detail and saturation, each one of his striking covers succeed in telling a story, which isn't always the case. Massimo has worked on comics including Northlanders, Y: The Last Man and Terminator 2029. Check out a selection of his work after the break!
