Black Bolt's face there keeps reminding me of Barry from The Tick.

Those are gorgeous. Loving the single color of each. That said, I get what they all signify except the last one. Is it from Spidey joining Avengers or is it something else?

Ya it looks like the different eras. The first his beginning, the death of Gwen, black suit, clone saga, and current member of Avengers. Note 50 years 5 covers. bobkatt013 fucked around with this message at 21:19 on Jul 30, 2012 |

drat, you know an artist is good when he makes a cover that makes me want to read the Clone Saga.

Codependent Poster posted:That Gwen cover is gorgeous. Agreed. I think that one is my favourite. Kind of amusing that they are showing the major events in Spidey's life there and they leave out One More Day.

Waterhaul posted:Marcos Martin is pretty drat good at drawing gorgeous covers. What I find funny is that these covers aren't necessarily appealing because they're technically good but instead they're very pleasing and minimal in design. Comic book covers are still garishly designed pieces with a bunch of flexing people grimacing at you but these are very subdued, single tone covers drawn in a crisp, clear style. Nothing has been touched by an airbrush, amazing! Farel Dalrymple was the artist on the Omega the Unknown reboot and I picked up the series based on the covers alone.  They were so opposite of typical Big Two covers that I couldn't ignore it.

Quantum of Phallus posted:I really want to get this, loved Fortress of Solitude, is it worth the read? If you're interested it definitely is. Omega has a very odd touch to even the normal parts that I remember from his books (haven't read Fortress tho). Lethem goes on a few experiments, one issue is almost entirely silent, another is narrated by a singing sculpture, but it all flows along with an oddly touching and interesting story.

Quantum of Phallus posted:I really want to get this, loved Fortress of Solitude, is it worth the read? Grab the trade, then. It's a really odd mini-series that begins with a mysterious superhero tied to a kid prodigy trying to stop robots from taking over the world or something but the plot takes a complete u-turn around issue 3 and I can't even describe it without spoiling things. It's definitely a great story that's absurd, humorous, and dramatic but it's never pretentious or full of itself like some experimental stories.

I had (maybe still have?) a few of the original issues from decades ago and I thought they were a confusing mess, but I guess the new version is worth reading so good for you, Omega.

I just read the Extrasensory trade of Madame Xanadu and they really decided to go out with a bang: Marian Churchland  Celia Calle  Chrissie Zullo Zullo is also a good cover artist:

DC Universe Online Legends #20 had horrible art, in particular the rendition of Wonder Woman. Making Wonder Woman look ugly is a terrible sin.

Was it this thread where we laughed at bullets never leaving the casing when fired? From The Massive #3 It's funnier to assume he actually threw the bullet with enough force to destroy a RHIB boat? Baron Bifford posted:DC Universe Online Legends #20 had horrible art, in particular the rendition of Wonder Woman. Making Wonder Woman look ugly is a terrible sin. I hate Batman so much when he's paired with other supes. He's always written as a boring badass that can overpower gods with little to no effort.

Becky Cloonan Her character designs are gorgeous. I like her manga aesthetics translate to great physiques and faces yet her eyes are intense and large like a hawk's. They're not large and doe like a typical anime character. And she has great range, too. Just look at her vistas

We're probably going to see an increase of Bane looking like his movie depiction. This is pretty good, if a little bit overdone.  Just fanart, but good enough for the thread. Mister Roboto fucked around with this message at 14:10 on Aug 10, 2012 |

That picture is way too Nu Metal for my tastes. It doesn't really jive with the tone of the character at all.

This thread isn't really for fanart because it's a slippery slope of just posting stuff randomly found on deviantart or tumblr. I like the image though because Bane looks like Bonk on steroids. Waterhaul fucked around with this message at 22:13 on Aug 10, 2012 |

Man there are some horribly drawn Banes in that video. Like  is this: But whatever, this is the thread for good art as well so have some motherfucking  GODZILLA  (this was posted way back)   Godzilla: Half Century War #1 Then again, I shouldn't need to post this since everyone should have already bought it, right?

I prefer the idea of Bane having pain mask in the movies and luchador mask in everything else. The mask just works so well in a comicbook setting.
