Here's one he recently did for the footnote:

Excerpt:
You’ve mentioned that Daredevil, coloring the beginning of writer Brian Michael Bendis and artist Alex Maleev’s historic run, was a favorite job of yours and that you’ve now taken over the colors for their successors, Ed Brubaker and Mike Lark. How are you going to approach it? Does it feel similar to the Bendis and Maleev pages?
Well, I didn't color just the beginning of the run. I colored, I think, 36 issues in a 54 or 55 issue run.
Anyway, no, it feels very different. I've only done three issues so far, but it's entirely different. I've worked with those guys before, though on various books; Catwoman, Gotham Central, Batman: Nine Lives and probably more that's skipping my mind. So, I already am comfortable with them and like working with them. The art is obviously very different, but my color sense is the same. The first arc is in Europe, which is unusual for DD. It's fun, a nice swashbuckling adventure kind of thing. More James Bond and less Hell's Kitchen than the Bendis stuff. And the art is a bit more open than Alex's stuff. It's still got a lot of blacks, but they leave a lot open and indicate lighting with lines marking plane breaks and that kind of thing. It's kind of Tothy. _________________ "Flash is back.
