At that time in the 90s, even good artists were imitating the Liefeld style because that was what seemed to be selling. I mean, look at JRJR's Cable art from that period. They were capable of more and better, but their job was to get people to buy their comics. As for actual content, here's Hyperion out-uglying the Hulk, from a What If issue.

Unfit For Space posted:That's not from What If; that's from Defenders #113, one of the first comics I ever bought. A huge fight scene on a yellow background, how could anybody pass this cover up! drat. Sorry about that, apparently I mis-labelled it at some point.

DivineCoffeeBinge posted:I was told of some story - but have yet to track it down - that came out not long after Byrne pulled that bullshit that detailed how The Wizard had hit Sandman with a brain-scrambling ray or something and convinced him that his attempts at reforming were just an evil plot, because The Wizard missed his old buddy from the Frightful Four and wanted his friend back. That story does exist. eter Parker: Spider-Man #12 by Tom Brevoort. This article has a rundown of the character's history and bad guy/good guy status.

Joe Fisto posted:I love Rod Reis on New Mutants. His Shadow King is truly a menacing figure. Reis is like the lovechild of Phil Noto and Bill Sienkiewicz. I was gonna say the colorist also did well, but apparently Rod Reis did that too. Good stuff. What's the current status quo with superhero comics and separating sketches, inking and colors anyway? I know digital tools help a lot, but it still sounds like a ton of work for one person.

 I considered posting this in the Funny Panels thread instead. The art is obviously bad on many levels, but the  composition and lack of background just make everything worse.

So the art by Eder Messias in Spider-Man: The Lost Hunt is mostly good but this elephant is, uh  Elephant teeth do not work like that! At all!

The Bendis Daredevil run could maybe be up there with Miller and Nocenti if Maleev’s photo-traced art wasn’t threatening to drag the whole comic down with it. I’m usually not this charitable with Bendis’s comics, the writing works better here than in most of his other works. Like, what if these scenes were drawn by Miller or JRJR in their primes, or a modern top tier artist, is what I'm thinking.    EDIT: I actually think Maleev is competent and the art works well with the colors in the talkier scenes, but any scene with action or a more complicated scenario suffers.

 I just really like the clever lettering here. It's not Walt Simonson, but it's still integrated in a fun way. Source: Daredevil (2011) #5 Art by [url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marcos_Mart%C3%ADn_(cartoonist)]Marcos Martin[/url]

If you think comics artists are bad with North American geography, they're even worse about other countries. Most of the time, I don't blame them, it's not exactly an easy job.

  I hate the lettering here. The art is okay, no complaints about that per se, but the letterer just keeps overemphasizing random words in a way that is completely at odds with the realistic art style. Source: Vectors #1 Artist: Rubén Gil Lettering: Lettersquids (that's how they're credited)

Minister of Sound posted:I work full-time as a letterer. In my experience, when poo poo like this happens, it's usually at the writer's behest and the editor will have their back. I suspect that's what happened here. If a letterer tried this on their own, they'd probably be replaced. Oh dear. Well, I hope the writer changes their mind, then.
