Didn't Baker do Wednesday Comics Hawkman in a similar style. At least he fought dinosaurs.

muscles like this? posted:He's half human. And he's also a mutant, which explains his flight and his greater-than-Atlantean strength. The guy's one of a kind in a lot of ways. Remember that time Venom ripped off his little wing ankles and Namor was like "I can't believe this pathetic tooth monster thing is the first one to do this poo poo to me." and just kept flying without em? Yeah.

Backgrounds are one thing but the thought of a major company paying someone for making GBS threads out stuff in poser and then actually publishing it is just absurd

Poser comics are so bad. So bad!!! The fact Kyle Baker of all people went down that path makes me so disappointed and genuinely confused. I had no idea.

It's mostly the laziness that gets me. I understand why an artist would do it: even in the best of circumstances you won't make poo poo as a comics artist. And I owe why an editor would go along with such half assed work: a good chunk of comics fandom don't care about art beyond looking "realistic" and if you're tracing poser models how can you miss a deadline? But even in the hands of someone who really, really, really knows what's up (Kyle Baker) it always looks utterly stiff and lifeless. Without twisting the composition at least a little it's almost impossible to create a line of action. It's much harder to guide the eye along the page. And the rigging on all of the models is questionable at best and a nightmare at worst. Even stick figures are more respectable than poser.

okay this is a long shot. Years ago when livejournal was a thing there was one called scans_daily that got so popular that Warren Ellis and Gail Simone became regular contributors. Warren Ellis in particular posted a comic that was not modern, had fairly normal looking art, bur had actions and dialog that were completely insane, main character was wandering around babbling about some kind of drug influenced philosophy, waving his hands around to mold things out of "air jelly", driving a car off a cliff screaming "Do you see what I see?" Of course the whole blog was deleted and googling doesn't help when I can't remember much besides Warren Ellis posting it, but does anyone know what I could possibly be talking about.

Could it have been Stardust the Super-Wizard by Fletcher Hanks? That was batshit insane, but I'm not sure if it was the right kind of batshit insane.

I'm sure this has probably been asked and answered but what in the gently caress happened to Peter Parker & Mary-Jane's kid that just disappeared in the 90's. I only found out about it due to Spider-Girl years ago and as I understand it Mary-Jane & Peter have a kid, Osbourne has her kidnapped then....? Nobody ever gives a poo poo about it again? Like I said I never read the original issues and only know about it due to Spider-Girl where she turned up fine.

redbackground posted:http://goodcomics.comicbookresources.com/2013/02/14/abandoned-love-whatever-happened-to-peter-and-mary-janes-baby/ Wait so they re-conned it so that Norman just had Mary Jane poisoned and that killed her child or he had the kid taken but it died? or it might still be out there? I can't even tell what might the truth due to the muddled storyline. You'd think any of those would be enough to have Parker think gently caress it and just kill Osborne.

There was mention of a daughter when they made the deal but it was implied to be one not yet born. Speaking of that event, it completely killed my interest in Spider-Man so I never read an issue after it but did they ever explain why he went back to the mechanical webshooters?
