Season 2 has some entertaining stuff--namely Kyle MacLachlan and Adrianne Palicki as two actual Marvel characters--but everything else still sucks. Season 3 is worse. Season 4 has Robbie Reyes which is nice, but it's way too early to tell if a few cool FX shots add up to a show worth watching.

^^ one of us didn't read all the fine print, I guess.  And that would be me.  qntm posted:Can't really blame him on that last point, I gave up on that show early in season one. (First season wasn't horrible, if you can accept the classic-serial cliffhanger storyline. Second season was pretty shaky (mountain lion? really?) and from then onward it was proven that Jack Bauer was a failed experiment from Department H/Weapon Plus - making an XY clone of Domino resulted mostly in a power inversion, where success can still be achieved, but only through the most difficult means imaginable, followed directly by more adverse results to offset.

mind the walrus posted:gently caress now you're going to get a ton of people going "IT GETS BETTER AT THE MIDPOINT OF SEASON ONE" Sure it does, season one had some decent intrigue by the end. Then it all just meanders about with dollar-store X-Men and the sexy female lead becomes a special snowflake superhuman who of course isn't blemished by any physical mutation, unlike the evil lady who is punished with ugliness for being all evil. And then I stopped watching. Apparently it has Ghost Rider now.

Quake was supposed to look like Angelina Jolie? Guess the artists never got the memo.

The secret agent who gets powers is from the comic book and was based on Angelina Jolie Jaiying (Dichen Lachmann, aka Sierra from Dollhouse) was dissected and put back together. She was Skye/Daisy/Quake's mom, and she was still beautiful, despite superficial scars. Raina (Ruth Negga, aka Tulip from Preacher) was turned into an ugly porcupine-lady from exposure to the Terrigen Mist. She was the one who worked with the Clairvoyant first, and then with Skye/Daisy/Quake's dad.

I just read Ghost Rider: Engines of Vengeance, and I'd like to nominate the entire loving thing for the Bad Art Award. Tradd Moore wants to be Humberto Ramos, but so far as anatomy goes he makes Ramos look like da Vinci. I can't even bring myself to post samples.

Haven't read that particular one but Tradd Moore in general loving rules. Maybe it's actually good?

He has no idea how to draw clothing folds and there's a couple of expressions that need dialling in, but otherwise that seems pretty okay.

You know how a cartoon's animation can look great in motion but if you pause it the characters can look really distorted during that particular frame? Ramos and Moore are both cartoony artists but Ramos' panels often look like they're captured from a cartoon during one of those awkward frames.

He also canonically does not have a penis as a result of his powers and every writer references this at some point when he shows up in a comic

I remember going to a mall in like the early nineties and buying one of those grab bag of comics, it had Some Power Pack and the origin issue of Slapstick. So every time he pops up, I'm like "I've heard of you, what have you done since then? Oh, nothing." And yeah, he was like Freakazoid's Origin, but he turned into the Mask. Even as a child I was like "This is not original."

ReagaNOMNOMicks posted:So he's a literal superhero? Cartoon, not comic. Spider-Man can swing from his webs with very little regard for physics and momentum, but the pretence is still made. If Slapstick were to acquire the powers of Juggernaut, when he ran through a wall he would leave a hole in the exact shape of his body.
