Take a deep dive into the creative process behind this stunning variant cover for Valiant Beyond: Tales of the Shadowman #8 – Legacy of LeRoi #2, illustrated by Julio Azamor . Crafted entirely in graphite on A4 paper, this original piece showcases the raw intensity and atmosphere that define his work.

From the delicate pencil construction to the rich contrasts and haunting textures, there’s something truly irreplaceable about traditional media—where every stroke carries weight, depth, and intention.
