I've recently discovered the art of Marcio Takara due to his work on last year's
The Flash Annual #1. Doing a quick google image search of his work, I found this impressive piece collecting one hundred heroic characters from comics and video games.

His character portraits are very stylish and "bright", and has a very
Young Justice animated style. His contribution to the Flash annual, which is only three pages, is a lot more straightforward: very simple panel construction and layout, which is different from the Francis Manapul style that makes
The Flash one of the Top 5 best books of the New 52.

| Seriously, Rob Liefeld, you couldn't even draw feet this simple? |
Takara has also drawn issues from the New 52
Blue Beetle series, Mark Waid's
Incorruptible and
The Incredibles: Family Matters. Dude has got some artistic chops and I wouldn't mind seeing him get more high profile work from DC or Marvel. I certainly would have no problem with him drawing a
Birds of Prey issue if the below image is any indication of how he'd depict Dinah.
