As far as poorly-drawn children are concerned, nothing quite proves June Brigman's point like the final issues of Power Pack.



The first time I saw this cover while looking through back issues, I thought it was going to be some kind of confusing flash-forward with the kids as teenagers. The kid in yellow? He's supposed to be about 8.

:manning: is all I see.

The average comic book artist has the same ability to draw a child as a medieval monk, apparently.



To the best of my knowledge that kind of weirdness was so extremely common because wealthy benefactors would actually pay the artists to paint them as some saint's baby. That's how we got so many extremely adult-looking babies hanging around in medieval paintings.

Being scowly and having two knives is all he has.

In the Days of Future Past movie, Warpath had the most darkly funny deaths. His friends just got brutally owned by the Sentinels who now converge on him, and he pulls a loving knife, scowls and dies.

Maybe when they finally get around to adapting Dan Slott's Mighty Avengers arc "The Unspoken", featuring the original Inhuman King whose name cannot be spoken except multiple people do and they censor out his name, so it's reasonable to assume that it's Shitfucker.

It's just like Liefeld in that you laugh harder the longer you look at it. Like the three random spare bullets strapped to Reed's ankle. Or that the part of Reed's body necessary to carry that big-rear end gun like that is the least muscular.

I didn't notice the dinosaur until you guys talked about it because I was so fixated on Bane's three foot long neck / collarbone arrangement.

Yeah if you focus on it the T-Rex is super goofy, but so is the hulking mass of Bane, and that is what draws my eye.

Now there’s a unique new character,regeneration but depending in how severe it is you could end up with a regenerated finger that grew too long or a gunshot wound that overcompensated and ends up a huge mass of flesh just poking out.

I hate that regeneration always conforms to exactly what it once was,wolverine gets burnt to a single drop of blood and somehow ends up the same height colour and look with perfect hair.

Isn't that Deadpool?

I feel like it's supposed to be the xeno's tail going through her head but there's no blood so it looks just enough like a bug trying to go down her throat and at this point I'm too afraid to ask for confirmation

There's little legs on the thing, the way they're positioned tells me it's a bug crawling into her mouth. Probably a lovely facehugger alternative because the old design wasn't rapey enough.

I wanted to say I actually do something similar sometimes when I draw. When I feel like starting out sketchy and loose, I'll hold the pencil over my pinky, almost horizontally, and as I go along and add more details, I'll gradually move it between the next set of fingers, until I'm holding it normally. Can't explain for the life of me what he's doing with his thumb, though.

I just want to say that it is extremely entertaining following the conversation without having seen the clip, my imagination is running wild.

It's a bit more complicated and scummy than that...

Back in 1996 Captain America, Iron Man, Fantastic Four, and Avengers were selling poorly, so a deal was made for Image founders Rob Liefeld and Jim Lee to take over the books and to reboot them. Liefeld took on Cap and Avenger, Lee took FF and Iron Man.

By issue 6 the Liefeld books were late, selling badly, and deeply unpopular, so Marvel triggered a clause and took them of Liefeld and gave them to Lee to finish up the Heroes Reborn "experiment".

Liefeld then took the Captain America art they had and scribbled over it to create the BOLD NEW CHARACTER: Rob Liefeld's Agent America!


Of course Marvel pointed out that Agent America was literally just a redrawn Captain America book, with the same sidekick and Red Skull turned into a robot, and started legal action.

This is when Rob licensed Fighting American and redrew the same art to feature FA instead.

God bless Rob and his lovely, lovely art.
