I love The Long Halloween and its art but ascribe most of that to the colorist, Gregory Wright, who I just had to look up because colorists never get any credit. Only blame. Tim Sale's colourists get plenty of credit. Sale is colour blind.

Since we're on the topic, what comics spring to mind when you think of colours elevating the pencilwork? I've been trying to distinguish more actively between comics where I like the pencils and comics where I like the colours lately (and comics where I like both, of course), and it has given me a new appreciation for good colouring work. Here are some that I immediately thought of:  (No One Left to Fight II - colours by Ficco Osio and Raciel Avira)  (Middlewest - colours by Jean-Francois Beaulieu)  (Age of Apocalypse: 10th Anniversary One-Shot - colours by Gary Yeung) I think I might be on my own in liking the cartoony but desaturated colouring house style of Udon Comics, but I am who I am. It's exactly the kind of colouring I like to see alongside manga-inspired artwork.

I want to point out that's not how that would've looked on the original page. Digital versions of DC & Marvel's back catalogue from the pre-computer era are notorious for having really bad, flat digital coloring that often completely ruins what the original colorist intended. Here's the original panel as it looked printed for reference:  Bob Sharen did nothing wrong, basically.

Been reading the post-Crisis Wonder Woman run recently. The art was great until George Perez stopped drawing it, and Chris Marrinan's art goes from competent to unbelievably shonky often in the space of a single issue. The faces here look like something from a Fletcher Hanks comic.

I've been working through the Dark Horse Aliens books and although there have been some edgy 90s stinkers and boring retreads it's been pretty good overall. As far as art goes, Salvation with Mike Mignola and Sacrifice with Paul Johnson have been highlights

What If...? is a series for imagining how slight twists on favourite Marvel canon stories would play out. Well, usually.

EDIT: My god -- is the black guy in the back using a space dart gun!?!? EDIT: While the art is pretty fantastic throughout, a lot of issue surrounds a direct, literally spoon fed narrative of Pearl Harbor ("at exactly this time in Oahu") which makes a lot of the following depictions and characterizations unfortunate. Let's just say that the eyes of the evil reptilians are... more narrow than what's shown here. The Modern Leper fucked around with this message at 18:39 on Jan 23, 2022 |

Oof Jolle is a good artist, so she didn't need to straight up trace that. Unless she's been tracing stuff all this time and nobody noticed until now.

I mean every artist bites from somewhere, and every pro has a retinue of poses/physiques they call back to, and using photo reference isn't the end of the world (if Greg Land's career is anything to go by). No idea how it's actually perceived in the industry, but since she was biting from prominent star artists on major covers it's probably going to be harder to justify/blow over than it might have been. Also going to just bite down and address the elephant in the room-- this is a woman, so by virtue of existing and having any talent at all I imagine this is blood in the water for the sharks we all know have nothing better to do than get whipped into a frenzy over this. I do not envy the life she is about to have.

Photo reference is a normal part of an artist's toolkit, like a ruler or an eraser. You don't have to use it but there isn't any real reason not to if it'll help you figure out a pose.
