All comic guns should be either cylinders with holes on the end or rectangular prisms with holes on the end. None of this realistic gun poo poo.

I was such a Marvel Zombie back in my youth that I bought almost anything they published that made it to the Waldenbooks or newsstand at my local mall. I bought all 10 issues of Speedball as they came out and even I had to admit that book was hot garbage. Ditko�s art was horrific, and Roger Stern was phoning it in. That middle panel of Robbie saying �MY PARENTS DONT LOVE ME ANYMORE� might be the worst Ditko had drawn to that point. That whole series is ripe for this thread - this comic wouldn�t have flown in the silver age, let alone the late 80�s. Also maybe don�t name your star character after a coke/heroin mix at the tail end of the cocaine epidemic.

And to top it all off, the letterer misspelled �prostitute�.

I believe it was 3-G where the writer by the end got really frustrated that they were writing a fairly dramatic story with who they wanted to be modern young adults, but the artist just refused to draw anything other than 'bland people in 70s-esque business fashion talking at each other'.

There was a week where the narration boxes/dialogue said Margo had gone into a diner. The art said she was talking to somebody on the sidewalk.

Personally my favorite part is how the eyes were clearly supposed to be closed in the last panel but someone decided to "fix" it.

The one I thought of was where the artist tried to do bullet-time, freeze-framing dozens of rounds coming from someone's gun. Except he drew them still in their cartridges.

I'm actually in the middle of a book about Vietnam veteran combat trauma, and it mentions incidents where soldiers survived seemingly impossibly deadly situations, such is this:

Achilles in Vietnam posted:

One veteran was struck in the flesh of his upper arm by a spent .50-caliber machine gun bullet. This heavy, high-velocity bullet, which can be lethal at a range of three thousand to four thousand yards, was projecting from his skin. He simply pulled it out, and the corpsman put on field dressing.

I always think of Terminator 2 when i see that. several times you see grenade rounds, sometimes sticking out of the bad guy terminator, before they explode, and i remember a lot of kids in 3rd and 4th grade drawing bullet like that because of it.
I guess if you only see bullets on tv or other comics maybe?

Gah, I wish I remember what it was, there was a realistic artist drawing someone stopping/chopping bullets in half with their mind, but screwed up and drew the shells/jackets and everyone gave them poo poo because it was a splash page or cover and super obvious. John Cassaday? Bryan Hitch?

Yeah comics artists, unless they had military experience, are not great at drawing real guns. But nobody's going to have a derringer these days, they're for serious nuts who want concealable firepower, not home defense enthusiasts like Narda here. She would want something small, but a Beretta would definitely fit her needs.

I get that, it's more that I both sincerely couldn't make out what that was and feeling outright disbelief at her pulling that out and scaring someone off with what looks like a toy gun with almost no ammo in it.

(I presume the writer imagined a standard piece of some kind and the artist had other ideas. Or he was drunk.)

The writer and the artist were the same person, and though he probably wasn't drunk, he was nearly 80.

It reminds me of one of my favourite quotes from the GW game Bloodbowl about Superstar player, Griff Oberwald, after he scored three touchdowns in his first professional game.

quote:

When Griff Oberwald first played for the Reikland Reavers, it was recorded that head coach, Helmut Zwimmer, said, "Zat boy is almost above average."

Ha ha the 60s comics had some of the most amazing dialogue when it comes to women. I wish I could find the issue but there is a panel where Sue says something like: "Oh I don't know what to say." and Reed replies something like "Good, women are for kissing not listening to." had me howling.
