If fantastic means really generic DC house style with weird perspectives then yes.

I thought DC house style was closer to Lee's or Finch's style?

I honestly don't remember any other current book with an animesque-style like this, on DC at least, since is closer to Udon's style (or at least it feels really similar to their Street Fighter comics). In any case is leaps and bounds better than this crap:




I'm actually kind of liking Noel's work more than Rocafort's on the title.

I found Gopez's art really bland, static and uninspiring (also it have some really odd quircks like Kory's demonic eyebrows). Granted, I'm just being picky since my favorite artists are Ivan Reis, Rocafort and Kirkham.

Once in a while this thread has something that is so bad that my eyes try to instinctively protect me from it. They just glaze over it and I have to force myself to watch it. This is one of those. I don't know why it happens. I figure it's an evolutionary response from back in the days when we were still living in the woods and out of nowhere, BAM there's a monkey rear end in a top hat. Nobody wants to see that.

Ignoring generic dumb poo poo I've been looking back through Phil Noto's "heroes through time" series and it's still really good.























The Franklin meeting Hulk scene is pretty much perfect.

Noto is quickly moving up the list of my favorite artists, he's really great at showing character in his faces. This sketch of Widow and Hawkeye he did is pretty great:

It helps that he has the same face the Hulk did in the 1966 picture.

These photos are charming, some are clever, but Noto really has the problem with variety and dynamics and his sequantial work is pretty bad because of it.

Mike Deodato sure loves the bullet casings from the infamous Minigun Daredevil page, so he brought them back for Original Sin:


A published page in a top 10 best-selling comic, starring naked model of a helicopter:


Deodato is no Finch, but I am still baffled at his status as one of the prime artists at Marvel.

Is that all just painted over CGI? It really looks like someone used poser to design the scene and then just told a colourist to paint the costumes on.

Deodato is real hit or miss. I really like the way he does lighting; it's a very specific style that doesn't resemble any other artist, and he often manages to cram in an incredible amount of detail in his bigger spreads. But I swear he's getting worse and worse about the whole poser thing. When he's bad, his art just looks like the laziest poo poo imaginable.

This happens a lot. Peter Parker and/or JJJ show in a lot of press conferences in DC books. It's a running joke between the two companies.

Phil Sheldon (the photojournalist protagonist of Busiek's MARVELS miniseries) shows up a lot, too.

The artist is Nuno Plati. It literally looks like some of the worst amateur fanart I've seen that doesn't involve people having sex with each other.

I think Noto is improving a lot when it comes to action with Black Widow, everything is starting to feel more dynamic. I'll agree with the mess that is Deodato. Ignoring Land i'd say he's the worst "major" Marvel artist.

This is the cover for the upcoming Superman / Wonder Woman #7, due in April. Although it's good work from a technical standpoint, it doesn't feel appropriate for a cover. It looks more like a panel from inside the book.

I actually love it but it looks like it's inked sloppy, which has absolutely got to be intentional. It looks great but the roughness bugs me. I like stuff to be a little rough, like some of the Noto pieces earlier, but that's a bit much. I really like WW's face there a whole bunch though.

It's not inked; it's pencils dumped directly to Photoshop for color. It looks rough because, as comic art goes, it ain't actually finished, really.
