Greg Horny makes art that looks like that creepy early 2000s fanboy trend of photoshopping superhero costumes onto fashion models.

Hmm you just might be on to something there

I saw a preview for Convergence: Justice League of America #1: "Heroes Interrupted" and was amused by the faces.

It's good to see that Madame is still getting work.

I am suspicious of the inker, unless that was drawn/inked/digitally whatevered by the same person.

e: Hmm okay ChrisCross (lol) just sucks I guess.

e2: Well that's pretty unfair of me to write off an entire set of work by one particular artist so I'll just say that particular page is pretty bad

ChrisCross's faces, while very expressive and fun, are also very, um... yeah. That.

I love his art, but it's an acquired taste.

I think that's Stockholm Syndrome, pal. Or is Zatanna actually pressing her face against a window in that panel and we just don't have context?

Is there a name for the type of art that guys like Frazetta, Vallejo and Ken Kelly do. The fantasy/sci fi themes with murky painted effects with giant space backgrounds? There are a ton of people that do that style and I was wondering if it had an actual term.

Discendo Vox: Mar 21, 2013; We don't need to have that dialogue because it's obvious, trivial, and has already been had a thousand times.

Fantasy, science fiction, and pulp.

Fantasy art? That's what I call it.

# ? Jun 10, 2015 22:01

zoux: Apr 28, 2006

Yeah that's a bit broader than I'm looking for. I just figured since I've seen so many artists do it that it might have an official term.

# ? Jun 10, 2015 22:05

Gaz-L: Jan 28, 2009

Honestly, I mostly hear Frazetta's name tied to it. So, Frazetta-esque?

Would anyone else read a thread about good/bad comic writing? I don't know much about writing, but I have some ideas.

As for art, I think the Flex Mentallo recoloring is more tasteful, but it sucks the fun out of the original:

He's doing covers for Gotham by Midnight starting this month.

Here's a neat one that came with solicits yesterday.

Also most of this page in Bizarro #1

He really is on another level. This is from the mid-80's (DD:Love and War) but it looks modern as hell.

What it must be like to be Greg Horn, to spend a hard day smearing photos around a little bit in Photoshop, and then look at something like that. :emo:

This is just sacrilege. How can those new "colours" be considered an improvement? Aren't garish four-colour adventures the entire point? Did nobody actually read that little piece of text? Why not just change all the wording as well while you're at it?
