Artist grades
With regards to the artists themselves, I give them the following grades and my critiques and comments on them. Not surprisingly, my favoritism of the GNs themselves on the basis of art alone tends to follow these grades
| Artist | Grade | Critique and Comments |
| Jason Badower | A | + Spot on likenesses + Deep, Moody, coloring + Crisp and solid + Otherworldly/cinematic quality to art + High impact action |
| Robert Atkins | A | + Smooth and clean with rich texture + Flowing lines convey energy and action well + Good likenesses + Great work in Bounty Hunter + Soft, yet solid |
| Michael Gaydos | B+ | + Gritty, thick, rough, earthy texture + Good likenesses + Conveys shadow and darkness well + Conveys action moderately well |
| The Kotzebue bros. | B | + Good likenesses |
| Staz Johnson | B | + Smooth, flowing lines + Energetic art |
| Alitha Martinez | B | + Soft and smooth + Art sparkles a little - Flat faces in profile shots at times - slight babyface-ness |
| Tom Grummett | B-/C+ | + Gritty lines + Flowing lines convey energy and action well + Good work on Revolutionary War - Too lumpy, especially with regards to the cheek bones & chins - Poor likenesses due to lumpiness - Clothes drawn fitting too tight |
| Ryan Odagawa | C+ | + Smooth and clean |
| Adam Archer | C | none |
| Marcus To | C | none |
| Peter Steigerwald | C- | - Too rough for the thinness of the lines |
