Shorty Posted November 19, 2008 Posted November 19, 2008 I know it's obvious but this thread is missing some Alex Ross.
Happenstance Posted November 19, 2008 Author Posted November 19, 2008 Theres something about Alex Ross' art ive never really been able to get into
Shorty Posted November 19, 2008 Posted November 19, 2008 I love it, it's like when regular people dress up a superheroes but without quite looking rediculous. I feel like he creates what the characters would really look like. Plus he still paints all his pictures the old fashioned way, no computers, which is awesome.
rokhed00 Posted November 19, 2008 Posted November 19, 2008 Might be a bit old skool for you guys, but I used to love Marshall Law, and this is as good a pic as any.
Paj! Posted November 20, 2008 Posted November 20, 2008 Not a fan of that lumpy CG style myself... It would look cooler drawn/painted.
Molly Posted November 21, 2008 Posted November 21, 2008 bringing sexy back. (sorry). I find Mark very attractive, there I said it. Also, awesome cover.
ReZourceman Posted November 21, 2008 Posted November 21, 2008 *Explodes with excitement at prospect of Inv #55 this weekend* Gonna be a bloody amazing issue. Also re that cover, he says in one of the trades or collects that it took him a ridiculous amount of time to do (obviously). Can't remember how long he said, but I think it was literally like weeks or a month or something.
Paj! Posted November 26, 2008 Posted November 26, 2008 I actually really dislike that. Superman looks all wrong, and it's a bit flat and unemotional/undynamic. ---- Lienil Yu
Happenstance Posted November 26, 2008 Author Posted November 26, 2008 I actually really dislike that. Superman looks all wrong, and it's a bit flat and unemotional/undynamic. Well I actually really dislike you!!! In all seriousness though I can see what you mean, there is something about his face I dont like too much. I love doomsday though in it.
Paj! Posted November 26, 2008 Posted November 26, 2008 Yeah Doomsday's alright. But it's like...a generic "face-off" pic.
Happenstance Posted November 26, 2008 Author Posted November 26, 2008 Yeah I know but I am a sucker for these type of face off pictures. This being my favourite:
Rick Dangerous Posted November 30, 2008 Posted November 30, 2008 Juan jose creates crazly detailed drawings, I love them.
ReZourceman Posted December 4, 2008 Posted December 4, 2008 OMG! OMG! OMG! This is so nice, this is so fucking nice. Very minor indeed SI spoilers. In fact the only thing this spoils is a better look at Venom from Dark Avengers. EDIT:/ I'm an idiot lol, it has minorish spoilers about the Wolverine from DA also. But yeah, still not major. Doesn't look like Venom. Isn't that fucking gorgeous. I just cannot tell you how much I love Invincible. It is my favourite thing in the whole world. My favourite out of TV, Movies and Comics I love it to bits. Ahem.

EDIT:/ I'm an idiot lol, it has minorish spoilers about the Wolverine from DA also. But yeah, still not major. Doesn't look like Venom. That's not Venom, it's clearly symbiote suit Spidey. It's a nice pic though, recognize most characters, even after being out of touch for twenty plus years. Love how Spiderwoman is such a mainstream character now, she was sadly underused when she first started out.

Love how Spiderwoman is such a mainstream character now, she was sadly underused when she first started out. (Aye, I put underneath it, it wasn't Venom...I only eluded it that way due to spoilers) But yeah although its symbiote Spidey costume it definitely isn't Peter. Spider-Woman would be down to Bendis. He absolutely LOVES her (and so do I) shes got her own ongoing title starting soon, and it should be quite good.
ReZourceman Posted December 10, 2008 Posted December 10, 2008 Right. I need to find out who the artist is on these TBolts covers, because they are freaking stunning. Best covers of the year.
Paj! Posted December 10, 2008 Posted December 10, 2008 The first one's ok, but they both verge on the "DeviantArt-fantasy-art-of-me-as-a-vampire-slash-angel-crying-blood" style. Kinda anonymous digital art. (Mainly the second one, and Songbird's face in the first one) One of my all-time favourites; Frank Quitely Love the style. It's so comfortable to look at. It's clean and intricate, but not tight. And it's not mucky and balrh like the guy who took over from him on New X-men after a while... Love love love. Love the fact his women aren't all supermodel-faced, but have odd, exaggerated proportions etc. Love how everyone looks slightly asian too.
Happenstance Posted December 10, 2008 Author Posted December 10, 2008 Never really liked his style myself, especially his Emma on X-Men. Came across a bit ugly. I nearly posted the Batman and Robin one myself a few days ago as I quite liked his Batman but I thought his Robin was terrible.
