Because of Liefeld we have stuff like Prophet. Nothing Land has done even touches Liefeld's worst work.

Liefeld is also fairly famous for stealing the work of other artists. It was something of a controversy, back in the day. My vote still goes to Land, though, if only because he's still actively harmful whereas Liefeld is pretty much a thing of the past. If he came out of retirement, I might have to reconsider my opinion.

Mike Del Mundo's work looks amazing. What are some good comics that he's worked on? (i.e. the interior art, not just the covers)

So, I've taken it upon myself to 'gift' my friend at college some really loving bad art to hang on her walls this year. I'm thinking I go for broke and track down Liefeld' Cap'n Fridgemerica ... but i'm having trouble. Was it an actual cover, or a B-side inserted in the end of a real comic?

On the other hand without Liefeld we wouldn't have Supreme: Blue Rose, which may be one of the best-drawn books coming out right now (in addition to having Warren Ellis firing on all cylinders). Can somebody with images post some pages from it? It completely deserves to be in this thread.

Just finished v3 of Brubaker's Catwoman. After the series established itself with amazing art by Darwyn Cooke, Cameron Stewart and Sean Phillips, for some reason the art took a turn for the terrifying as the last few story arcs were drawn by the team of Paul Gulacy and Jimmy Palmiotti.      These are some of the examples I could cull from the internet, but they're hardly the worst that it gets. Why does everyone have eyes the size of dinner plates and a pointy pig-nose? WHat the hell is going on with Selena's boobs in that first cover? Why does Slam Bradley suddenly look like a mid-30s Bogart? While Burbaker's writing was spot-on the whole run, this art (and the needless War Games crossover) really brought down the final set of issues.

redbackground posted:Gulacy has always tended to draw pretty large eyes. Check out his Huntress in Batman/Predator II. Would YOU be happy if you were Brubaker? The biggest issue was changing Catwoman's costume from the wrinkly, buckle-filled jumpsuit that Cooke and Stewart drew and reverting to the painted-on bodysuit. It just reeks of not understanding the difference between "sexy" and "sexually exploitative".

No artist can work on one series indefinitely, especially on the monthly basis required by the big two. The problem isn't creative teams bailing, the problem is the publishers keeping books going with new teams and pretending it's the same drat book just because it features the same characters and loosely connects to the same storyline.

Well that's just a dumb move by pubs then. Hopefully DC & Marvel learn from Image and when a book is doing well, let the creative team take a couple a months a year to catch up. It gives their customers no credit to think if a book misses a month then people will stop buying it. If anything a poo poo artist would make me kick a book more than a delay. I'm still reading Hawkeye but I almost dropped She-Hulk.
