I have also seen Aseprite being recommended. It looks nice and I'm sure it works well, but it is not open source unfortunately. There is an open source alternative called LibreSprite, which seems to mimic Aseprite quite closely.
I'm not too sure about a pen that would work nicely, but I do like Pixelorama. It allows you to make pixel art and includes layering/animation. On top of that, it's open source (I'm a big fan of that).
