That costume is from 1995 though :ssh:

C'mon guys it's not a metal leg, it's an incompletely materializing armor which signifies the current extent of her corruption by the demonic forces of Limbo. Let's be serious.

So you're more disturbed by the costume on a teenage girl than whatever the gently caress is wrong with her back and thigh?

I said "mostly". It's close enough to the classic red and blues.

Well in the sense that it's red and blue and has a spider on the chest, sure.

I think Tony Daniel is the perfect artist for the new Batman stuff.





Greg Capullo used to make every character way too vascular, but I dig him.

Was this supposed to be Marvel's response to Goosebumps or something? Because that's one tagline away from being something RL Stein shat out in the 90's.

Also that art. I'm just trying to find what's terribly wrong with it and I've narrowed it down to everything.

Chillers was a 70s black and white horror mag Marvel put out, iirc. Marvel's non-superhero mags were all pretty amazing, it's a shame all of it died. And it's an even bigger shame some of it got relaunched as... that.

I'm trying to figure out what is happening with her shirt. Are those lumps up top supposed to be her breasts? Or an extremely pronounced collarbone? As an artist, should you worry if people ask questions like this about your work? ...you should, right...?

Also, I like the way Wolverine's shirt is bunched up in the middle like he's leaning on that headlight, only the handlebars are also in front of him, so that can't be happening, so clearly this was meant to depict a hideous distortion of reality.

Behing his giant motorcycle. Did Marvel actually pay someone to do this? They actually looked at it and said "Yep. This is worth printing." and handed over money for it?

Is that from that storyarc in Supergirl where she got split into good and evil? That comic was pretty awful, if I recall....

Supergirl's reboot costume is a lot better (plus this is the first time a comic has convinced me to care about Supergirl as a character at all)

I don't know as this qualifies as "worst comic art" but I've gotten to the point where I really cannot stand "Noto-face":





The thing is that these aren't really good examples, just what I've come across after 10 minutes on Phil Noto's blog.

And it's probably unfair because has a beautiful style and the stuff he regularly posts on his blog is actually quite nice. But all the fangirls obsessively fawning over his drawings of Sue Storm/X-23/Jean Grey/what-have-you looking like the exact same loving person...I can't tell if he's getting lazy or he's pressured under deadline or what.

He seems like a very nice man who cares about his fans and is obviously much more talented than drawing the same woman over and over with different hair/costumes:



It's beautiful stuff, but by and large he just draws the same woman over and over again and I wish he'd switch it up a bit in his comic art.

They are the same. Though at least there's some variance in body types, however slight. That's a problem some otherwise good artists have (looking at you, Adam Hughes and Frank Cho). It seems like there is only one type of female body in comics, and those habits don't help fix that. :sigh:
