The Art of Frank Cho

"the artist had brought out the full effect of the lustrous black hair" [NOBL]

Frank Cho, BSI ("The Duke of Balmoral") is an artist known worldwide in the comic industry. From his early strips in college to his work with Marvel and D.C., he is an artist whose services are in high demand.

Cho is also a Sherlockian, and has been one for quite some time. It's only recently though that his profession and his hobby have begun to find a common thread.

We chatted about the evolution of his talent and his career, as well as what the future hold in store for this very talented artist.
