Comic Books

Coloring makes both worse.

I'd have to see both without colors to really make a fair judgment on the lineart.
I would agree. as is, both look like shit.

Those are both on the GOOD sign of mainstream comics bad art. I honestly can't be bothered to look more up but it definitely gets worst than that. And it happens on large and smaller profile books. Size/popularity does not matter. They'll take a steaming pile of art shit on any book.

Saw this one on reddit the other day, was amused.
New Suicide Squad #6 Awful Art - Imgur


Makes you wonder sometimes.

That looks like an amateur web comic. Why would I pay 2.99 (or 3.99+ in some cases) for that garbage?

Jesus, that's even worse than the Marvel ones.

I think the next Marvel thing I'm gonna read is the new Ms. Marvel, with the teenage girl. Seen a lot of panels of it that I really liked so I might as well try it.

Also gonna give Rat Queens a try, looks interesting. Anyone reading it?

I kindof despise Rat Queens.
Its basically "what if a couple of frat boys decided to make a LBQT DnD comic?" Its incredibly cynical, mocking nerds and LBQT. Just full of spite.
But for some reason, the tumblr/reddit audience doesn't seem to notice its by a couple of white dudes using the "diversity" push to make a quick buck off of them.
I really have no idea why its so popular.

The artist for it was arrested for domestic violence after #10. (color me shocked...) The new artist Stepan Sejic, (sunstone, Topcow, and a few other things) is taking over. Stepan is awesome, and a genuinely good dude. Also a social advocate, but sane, and sincere. I kindof doubt he'll stay on long honestly. I think hes going to see through the writers bullshit. or at least hope.

I kind of don't give a shit about the motivation behind it or backstory on the creators. I'm not in the industry like you, that shit is meaningless to me. Is it a good read on it's own? All I care about.

Someone pissed in Grimm's cheerios this morning.

Dungeons Dragons (Idw Hardcover)): John Rogers: 9781613778463: Amazon.com: Books

IDW's DnD books were amazing.

Zub Tales | The home of Jim Zub on the web

Skullkickers, Red Sonya, Wayward, Pathfinder, Baulders gate upcoming.


Rat queens is very snarky and spiteful. Full of metahumor, and very "modern". like, dialogue is not in universe. Everyone is talking out of character all the time. character wear teeshirts with screen printed logos, in a medieval fantasy world.
one character is an atheist cleric.

Do you like deadpool(bad "oh so random" deadpool, not good deadpool), or Harley quinn ongoing?

Sounds fun, you talked me in to it!

Atomic Robo is fantastic.

How will this work for the creators making money?

The close-up on human Thor is doing absolutely nothing to dispel the gay Thor perception. He's obviously jerking Odin to some gay porn on the back of his hammer. Next level shit.

So is there any hope they won't screw this up? Esad Ribic on art duties gives me wood regardless.

The gay one looks like the Thor from Adventures in Baby Sitting.

So they finally showed the symbiote home world in Guardians of the Galaxy with a few suprises,

That is awesome. I need to check that out.

So they ret-conned symbiotes to be benevolent organisms?
