Rude is one of my favorite artists. He's like a cross between Dave Stevens, Alex Toth and Jim Steranko.
In a perfect world, Rude would be drawing a top ten book for DC or Marvel but, apparently, he prefers to do most of his work for creator owned titles and only takes one shots or limited series from the Big Two.
actually, he's tried to get more work from Marvel and DC. he's one of several name artists that can't seem to get work from either company these days.
