Rhyno posted:Even back then Jae Lee was critically acclaimed. People ate that poo poo up. I know I did. When I was sixteen, I self-published what can only be described as a 90s-fueled disaster of a comic that was a horrifying combo of Jae Lee's method of drawing clothing and Todd McFarlanes chewing gum faces. It was... very bad. As for Lee, his early stuff was basically a weird knock off of Sienkiewicz's funkiest anatomy and Bisley's love of hair and veins: Part way through his incomprehensible "Hellshock" series at Image, he dropped a lot of that and moved into his own "cleaner" style and mostly stuck with it from there.

Because Simon Bisley (sort of) drew veiny weirdos like that and Jae Lee (who was like 20 at the time) really liked Bisley: The main difference is that Bisley wasn't drawing Namor, a lithe character who's supposed to be elegant and regal, not crazy and hairy.

Though I suppose an alternate explanation would be that Namor is experiencing a MASSIVE case of the bends and his circulatory system is LITERALLY EXPLODING when exposed to the lower pressure of the surface world.

Ahahaha cripes, it looks like Deadpool, Namor and Blanka got merged in a transporter accident.

Jae Lee still never learned how to draw backgrounds.

Speaking of X-Men in the 1990s: I suspect the reason Cap is screaming is that he appears to have pulled every muscle in his back at once. Wheat Loaf fucked around with this message at 16:58 on May 20, 2014 |

Perhaps he's only just realised someone switched his left arm to his right shoulder.

He's reacting in horror as he realises his right forearm has been replaced by a shield.
|
# ? May 20, 2014 18:14 |

He's using the shield's shiny inner surface to check if he's got anything stuck in his teeth.

While at Friendly, Pollina provided pencils for the popular Sex Trek series, an adult parody of Star Trek featuring characters named "Jism T. Cock" and "Jean-Luc Prickhard." Pornographic ferret advocacy was HUGE in the 90s.

Nothing wrong with speed lines man. read right to left Check out that detail in their clothes and the cinematic action. A Bride's Story by Kaoru Mori is kinda amazing.

I'll have to check that out despite having zero interest or knowledge in New Avengers because it's rare seeing a comic with unique art or a different medium other than heavy inks + digital color.
