ReZourceman Posted February 7, 2009 Posted February 7, 2009 ohhhhhh right hey, that's actually pretty cool I guess. isn't he...already doing a job on Invincible though? I think Invincible is currently at the top of my list for comic art atm. The colour is just so fucking good and it really brings out the slick pencils- all bold, clean lines and broard expression. It's ace. Yeah exactly its amazing. The colourest changed in issue 51, but its almost better I'd say. Still clean and bold, but just....slightly more detail, and the blood is a bit more realistic (although I like the sheer red of prior) but yeah absolutely wicked. For Haunt, some other dudes are doing the layout, then Ottley is doing the pencils, then MacFarlane on inks. Dunno who's doing the colour. My favourite artists are like....Ryan Ottley (when I can afford it, I'll be buying some of his original art) Jason Howard, Steve McNiven...erm...a few others but yeah. I think its time to pick up Old Man Logan from ebay too. Sounds absolutely quality.
Paj! Posted February 7, 2009 Posted February 7, 2009 Though I'm somewhat out of the comics loop, I always had a soft-spot for both Kubert brothers artwork. Actually I loved it.
Happenstance Posted February 7, 2009 Posted February 7, 2009 I think its time to pick up Old Man Logan from ebay too. Sounds absolutely quality. Ive been reading Old Man Logan, really enjoying it
Dan_Dare Posted February 7, 2009 Posted February 7, 2009 I loved the marker drawings Ottley did for conventions in the back of Invincible vol.2. Really cool pictures.
Happenstance Posted February 7, 2009 Posted February 7, 2009 Anyone read any Superman? Im in the mood to get a new trade but I want something with a real epic story.
Shorty Posted February 7, 2009 Posted February 7, 2009 Big fan Kingdom Come, All Star Superman, Birthright, The Last Son, Death and Return of Superman or for some awesome different takes on Superman: Red Son, Secret Identity, Lex Luthor: Man of Steel
Happenstance Posted February 7, 2009 Posted February 7, 2009 Ive got Death and Return and Birthright, didnt really like All Star but i'll take a look at the rest thanks.
ReZourceman Posted February 7, 2009 Posted February 7, 2009 Not really into Superman, and never really read much, but apparently All-Star is absolutely brilliant, excellent, epic story telling. ------ Siiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiick That is the best Iron Man I have ever read. Invincible Iron Man #10 Absolutely amazing. This will make a fucking sweet graphic novel. Anyway it was amazing. Spoilers ahoy. Tony shags Maria Hill, heh get in. Pepper Potts is in Stark Industries, and gets pissed off, throws a chair at a wall and it flicks a switch. A room opens with a female Iron Man suit for her. She says "Hello girl." Norman puts out a warrant for the arrest of Tony, HAMMER agents go mad everywhere in the Stark branches. Tony shows Maria loads of Iron Man suits he has/built. After she wakes up after their shag hes left a note saying "Blow them up" or something and hes rigged them with explosives. The end panels are Maria running away from an explosion thinking "Well. No turning back now" Tony flying off in that old school Iron Man suit, the one with the glowing yellow lines if you know which one I mean (on the covers of many...1996-8 ish era ones) saying "Well. No turning back now." and Pepper standing on top of a Stark sign saying "Well. No turning back now" (in her new suit obv). Fucking brilliant. Matt Fractions a fucking god. 9.5/10
Dan_Dare Posted February 7, 2009 Posted February 7, 2009 Secret Identity rocks. I really liked that one. not a big fan of the character in that he's almost omnipotent but I think if a story focus' on his alien identity and treats him with a scale and quality of writing befitting the global impact Superman would have, you can make a good story aorund him. so, eh, Watchmen I guess
ReZourceman Posted February 7, 2009 Posted February 7, 2009 OH SWEET! I just found Ottleys Haunt. So heres shitty MacFarlanes take on it ; And here is God's ;
Dan_Dare Posted February 7, 2009 Posted February 7, 2009 proof, were it ever needed, that Todd is a naughty boy and should have his colouring in books put away in the cupboard.
Paj! Posted February 7, 2009 Posted February 7, 2009 Literally loving it. Isn't that McFarlance pic literally just a re-do of an old Spidey cover? I've seen it before (as Spidey obv)...? So bad.
ReZourceman Posted February 7, 2009 Posted February 7, 2009 Yeah it is Spider-Man basically. Ryans version actually looks like a different character. His middle fingers are even together on his right hand ffs! Lol.
Dan_Dare Posted February 7, 2009 Posted February 7, 2009 so... what's the deal with his super hero power being spunk?
Shorty Posted February 7, 2009 Posted February 7, 2009 have you seen the screenshots for the Watchmen game. lols, Rorschach has like a magic punch or something, and everyone has RAGE bars.
Tellyn Posted February 7, 2009 Posted February 7, 2009 so... what's the deal with his super hero power being spunk? Oh jeez, I'm going to think of that every time I see it now! On a serious note, I think it's supposed to be ectoplasm.
ReZourceman Posted February 7, 2009 Posted February 7, 2009 Secret Warriors #1 HFS. 9/10 ------------ Oh boy. http://uk.comics.ign.com/articles/952/952404p1.html Relaunching the Ultimate line, yayaaaaayy. Including Spider-Man starting at a new number 1. *sigh* wtf is the point, seriously. Jeph Loeb is continuing to rape and shit all over volume 1 and 2 of write Ultimates. Seriously that guy should just be culled. I don't like Marvels announcements at all. Like....honestly, Marvels announcements have sucked ass. New Ult Spider-Man artist. Wow.........thats shit. Marvel Manga ? Wtf. Uggghhhhh.
Molly Posted February 7, 2009 Posted February 7, 2009 [ Wow.........thats shit. Marvel Manga ? Wtf. Uggghhhhh. [/color] That looks like the one you did in your comedy video!
ReZourceman Posted February 7, 2009 Posted February 7, 2009 That looks like the one you did in your comedy video! Hahah! And he's now drawing one of my favourite comics.....I'm literally cry. *Edit* Actually...to be fair, all inked and coloured it looks okay. I'm not a fan of the big eyes though. However, this War Machine front cover heals my eyes. Isn't this....stunning.
Molly Posted February 7, 2009 Posted February 7, 2009 Those eyes are MA. That other one is cool, but howcome it's not...painted? Looks like a photo or a computer animationism.
ReZourceman Posted February 7, 2009 Posted February 7, 2009 Those eyes are MA. That other one is cool, but howcome it's not...painted? Looks like a photo or a computer animationism. Aye its this guy called...Fran...Mattina something. He's amazing, does all these photo real covers. They are so nice. More here ; http://www.n-europe.com/forum/showpost.php?p=888380&postcount=48 PS Read....anything yet?
Paj! Posted February 7, 2009 Posted February 7, 2009 Relaunches annoy me, as I like having collections of things that go into the big numbers. Makes it feel more real. Although this seems to come at an appropriate moment. Can someone give me a rundown of Ultimatum? I know NOTHING about it, and want to be spoiled entirely.
Molly Posted February 7, 2009 Posted February 7, 2009 Aye its this guy called...Fran...Mattina something. He's amazing, does all these photo real covers. They are so nice. More here ; http://www.n-europe.com/forum/showpost.php?p=888380&postcount=48 PS Read....anything yet? I did actually!! I read 2 or 3 wolfmans, jolly bon. Invincible is what I really want though, I'll read them in bed tonight, literally will.
