We’re just barely two weeks into the new year, and most of the big best-of lists and things have already come and gone. Awards show season is in full swing and, while comics don’t celebrate our 2013 until July due to the demands of the Comic Con schedule, a look forward at 2014 is pretty exciting.One of the biggest things we enjoy doing is looking at some of the talent that’s just ready to pop; last year, we talked a lot about how Aaron Kuder was primed to take off, and then about midyear he got the job drawing Action Comics with Greg Pak, which was pretty vindicating.This year, we figured it could be fun to take a look at a handful of creators we figure are prime to take their career to the next level. Not all of these will be “rookies,” but nobody here is going to be a lapsed superstar or anything. It’s just a question of artists whose talent is there, and who seem to be in the right place to be a household name in 2014.One last thing to bear in mind: This is my no stretch meant to be any kind of exhaustive list of the many people in comics deserving of wider recognition. This is more like a list of people deserving of wider recognition and standing on the precipice of actually getting it. Let us know in the comments who you think is ready to blow up this year!
