I only know 3 works by Bolland Camelot 3000, Batman: The Killing Joke, and short story in Batman: Black and White. He has done covers for several titles including Wonder Woman vol.2.
Bolland is a truly a great artist but from what I read incredible slow in doing a series or a one-shot. I read somewhere it took him 3 years to complete Batman: The Killing Joke and it was only a 48 page graphic novel! How he ever got through Camelot 3000, a 12 issue maxi-series, is beyond me.
I wished he would do another a one-shot, or a mini-series, or just more cover art, he's a great talent.

I have to agree that I love Bolland's work. I've got to admit I've bought more than one book just because he drew the cover. I think with artists, we could a lot worse than Bolland.

I don't make it a habit of modifying other people's posts because lord knows I've made my fair share of typos around here, especially when I sneak a post in from work and rush to get it out. But since it was a title of a thread, I went ahead and corrected the naming of it. This is so we don't offend Brain Bolland. We want all the real credit to go to Brian Bolland. It's amazing how our brain allows us to see what we think we should be seeing. I totally glazed that over when I seen the title.

Killing Joke took 3 years because Vria was busy teaching himself how to do all of his work on the computer. Thats right, he does not do any of his work on paper at all. One of my favorite cover artists ever.
