Supermarket was a gorgeous book (what IDW books aren't nowadays) primarily because of the vibrant color that made the pages come alive. My vote is for Kristian Donaldson.

I've got to go with Dave Stewart, he really thinks it out & sets a great mod with his colors, he is a great compliment to the artists

Justin Ponsor not being recognized is a ridiculous oversight. Yeah, the whole Greg Land controversy sort of overshadows his work, but he's incredibly versatile, and does great work not only on Ultimate Power and Ultimate Fantastic Four, but he did Ultimate Extinction and Ultimate Spider-Man brilliantly. Best colorist in comics, period.

To say nothing of Morry Hollowell's incredible work from Civil War being ignored.

How about best colorist John Higgins, for recoloring the Watchmen for the absolute edition so many years later

Dave Stewart's colors bring enough to table to put him on equal par with whomever he is coloring. When a fill-in artist does an issue of Conan, Stewart's colors keep the tone of the book well enough that you barely notice Cary Nord isn't on pencils.

Plus he was one of the most intimidating pitchers of his time, won two ALCS MVPs, a World Series MVP, has three World Series rings and four 20-win seasons, and is a lifetime 7-1 against Roger Clemens in head-to-head post season matchups.

Have you seen Walk-in though it's a turd & one of the most outstanding turd-tastic things that book has to offer is the coloring
