Here are some of the head sketches I did at this year's C2E2 show. I conveniently had a scanner on hand, so I managed to get hi-res images for my archives.
There isn't really much to say about the images except for the fact that I limited myself to about 2-3 minutes with each one. Also, I wanted to see what I could get away with drawing these with just a pen and not my traditional bush. To my surprise, I was genuinely happy with the results.
I'm not going to throw everything out the window or anything - start doing everything with a pen. I think there are instances when the it's a great, appropriate tool. But more often than not, at least with my own work, the lines can come off really mechanical.
Eh. What do I know? I'm just glad I managed to sketch for everyone who asked for one. Victory!

wow!!!
Rain is not happy to be next to Gambit, I can tell by the look in her eyes.
Your Spidey is just killer.
Great stuff. Love the Pheonix and the ole Chuck Jones' Grinch looking Loki!
Radicals. What kind of pen, out of curiosity...
I love how you did your Hellboy, Ivy, the panel with the Hulk, Phoenix, Diablo..all is such amazing!
Thanks for sharing.
i just love how fluid your line work is in one piece then so rigid in the next. what control! i'm a huge fan!
Those are stunning. If only I lived in the US so I could stand in line for a Canete-sketch sometime. That line would move incredibly fast AND the sketch would be so worth it. I really hope to find lots of your work in print for a long time to come, because that is stunning work!
Be seeing you

Thanks again for the Zatanna!
Awesome! Even your 2-3 min sketches blow me away.
Great Work!
awesome sketches.
Damn, man, long-time admirer and inspiree. Just have to say, the level to which you "get" how Superman's face should be drawn puts you on a level with Frank Quitely and damn near no one else.
Esquisite linework all around.
These are killer!
I actually picked up a Shazam card from you at C2E2 it's so cool.
But seeing your Flash card makes me want to see you tackle more of that character.
The angels in your profiles are so sick!
Madly jealous of everyone that got one!
