I'm going to have a table at Long Beach Comic-Con this weekend and I wanted to know which character would be best to draw on my sketching price list. I know Wolverine, Batman and Superman are usually it but I'd like to hear more names from other companies.

Thanks in advance. :)

Spider-man, natch.

Add him to those three, and you're likely set. Also, Green Lantern and Thor have experienced a major popularity surge, so be aware of those.

GL, Spider-Man sound like good bets. What about Iron Man?

Wolverine, Spider-Man, Batman, Hulk. Then I'd go for Green Lantern because he seems popular with con-types (Check the many GL shirts :) ), Iron Man because of the movie, Deadpool because of his recent surge, Wonder Woman maybe?

seems like he surges every once in a while, the recent one has been pretty good though and I'm actually not burnt out on him like I thought I would be.

Deadpool, Iron Man, Green Lantern..and I bet you draw any DC character as a Black Lantern or just lay out a Marvel Zombie and you'll get those picked up quick.

I would say...

Superman
Spider-Man
Batman
Hulk

Those were the ones I knew before I knew comics. I think those are universally-known, even by people who never read a comic or saw a movie. The next batch would include:

Iron Man
Wolverine
Wonder Woman
Fantastic Four
X-Men (as a name, not necessarily as individual characters)
Captain America

I think those are known - at least in name - by people due to movies and tv shows/cartoons.

Green Lantern? I don't even know who that is! (Well, I do...but not very well.) I think Green Latern would be in with the next batch:

Green Lantern
Daredevil
Punisher
Deadpool
Thor
and so on and so forth.

Since I'm relatively new to comics, it's easy for me to remember who I knew before I started reading comics. Those first 4 I think are the best known - the most iconic.

I think this is the way to go.

Deadpool is a pretty big deal at the moment.

Some other good ones here.

I may end up with Deadpool and someones else but for now I think just Deadpool.

Thanks again and hope to see some of you at LBCC. :crazy:
